Safety Rules for Belt Sander Bench Mounting Kits
This accessory bench clamp and guides can convert your belt sander into a stationary unit for occasional use. It is intended for sanding flat, bevel and flush surfaces. Read and understand the manual for the tool and these instructions for the use of this accessory with the tool. Failure to follow important safety instructions can result in serious personal injury. Let the belt sander do the work, exert moderate but firm pressure while holding the material against the belt and end stop. Pressing hard does not remove material any faster. Wear eye and dust protection equipment. Use in a well ventilated area to minimize airborne dust or attach to a vacuum cleaner. Do not use for sanding materials like asbestos, paint or other hazardous materials that could create injurious dust. Particles are expelled from workpiece during sanding operations which can irritate eyes and lungs possibly causing injury. Always clamp or secure sander and fixture when bench mounted. Always use edge stop, fence, or guide when sanding short or small workpieces. Securely lock all adjustable parts so they cannot loosen while sanding. Fingers or clothing can be dragged into pulley and housing area. Unplug the sander before changing accessories. Accidental start-ups may occur if sander is plugged in while changing an accessory. Be aware of the location and setting of the switch �ON" position. Never leave the switch in the �ON� position. Be aware of switch location and know how to shut off the tool in emergency situations. Accidental start-ups and the inability to turn the tool off, could cause injury. Avoid awkward hand positions where the belt could pull workpiece and your fingers into the belt or pulleys. Keep your fingers and clothing away from the belt. They could get cut or wedged between the pulley, belt and motor housing. Properly adjust tracking of belt to avoid it overhanging the housing. A running belt overhanging its housing can cause severe lacerations. If belt frays, trim frayed ends to prevent distraction. Keep the cord to the side away from pulleys. The cord can be dragged into belt housing and become entangled with the pulleys. Do not wet sand. Water entering a power tool could result in electrical shock hazard. Do not sand magnesium. Magnesium dust is highly flammable.
