Additional safety
warnings for spindle sanders
WARNING. The warnings, precautions, and instructions
discussed in this manual cannot cover all possible
conditions and situations that may occur. The operator must
understand that common sense and caution are factors
which cannot be built into this product, but must be supplied
by the operator.
WARNING. Do not operate the spindle sander until it is fully
assembled and you have read and understood the following
instructions and the warning labels on the spindle sander.
1. Know the condition of the spindle sander. If any part is
missing, bent, or does not operate properly, replace the
part before using the sander.
2. Determine the type of work you are going to be doing
before operating the spindle sander.
3. Secure your work. Support the workpiece securely on the
table, and hold it with both hands.
4. Be aware of the direction of feed. Feed the workpiece
into the sanding sleeve against the direction of rotation of
the sanding sleeve.
5. Always keep your hands out of the path of the sander
and away from the sanding sleeves. Avoid hand positions
where a sudden slip could cause your hand to move into
the spindle. Do not reach underneath the workpiece or
around the sanding sleeve while the spindle is rotating.
6. Disconnect the sander after turning off the power switch.
Wait for the spindle to stop rotating before performing
maintenance. The sander must be disconnected when
not in use or when changing insert plates, sanding
sleeves, rubber spindles, or other items.
7. Make sure there are no nails or other foreign objects in
the area of the workpiece to be sanded.
8. Never use this sander for wet sanding. Failure to comply
may result in electrical shock causing serious injury or
worse.
9. Use only identical replacement parts when servicing this
spindle sander.
10. Make sure the spindle has come to a complete stop
before touching the workpiece.
11. Take precautions when sanding painted surfaces.
Sanding lead-based paint is NOT RECOMMENDED.
The contaminated dust is too difficult to control, and
could cause lead poisoning.
When sanding paint:
• Protect your lungs. Wear a dust mask or respirator.
• Do not allow children or pregnant women in the work
area until the paint sanding job is finished and the clean-
up is completed.
• Do not eat, drink, or smoke in an area where painted
surfaces are being sanded.
• Use a dust collection system when possible. Seal the
work area with plastic. Do not track paint dust outside of
the work area.
• Thoroughly clean the area when the paint sanding project
is completed.
