Machine capacity. Do not try to force the
sander to remove material faster than the power
available from the drive motor. The use of light
pressure on either disc or belt sanding and
moving the part back and forth will maximize belt
or disc life, help to minimize the chances of an
accident and keep the force within the capacity
of the drive motor.
Machine adjustments. Make all machine
adjustments with power off except belt tracking.
Belt tracking should be checked manually before
starting the sander, but final adjustment may
have to be made after starting up the sander.
Table safety. Be sure the table is locked in
position before placing stock on it and that its
front edge is within 1/16" or less, of the disc or
belt.
Job completion. If the operator leaves the
machine area for any reason, the sander should
be turned "off" and the abrasive belt and disc
should come to a complete stop before his/her
departure. In addition, if the operation is
complete, he should clean the sander and the
work area. Never clean the sander with power
"on" and never use the hands to clear sawdust
and debris; use a brush.
Replacement parts. Use only Powermatic or
factory authorized replacement parts and
accessories; otherwise the warranty and
guarantee is null and void.
Misuse. Do not use this Powermatic sander for
other than its intended use. If used for other
purposes, Powermatic disclaims any real or
implied warranty and holds itself harmless for
any injury or damage which may result from that
