GENERAL SAFETY RULES
Woodworking can be dangerous if safe and proper operating procedures are not followed. As with all machinery, there are certain hazards involved with the operation of the product. Using the machine with respect and caution will considerably lessen the possibility of personal injury. However, if normal safety precautions are overlooked or ignored, personal injury to the operator may result. Safety equipment such as guards, push sticks, hold-downs, featherboards, goggles, dust masks and hearing protection can reduce your potential for injury. But even the best guard won’t make up for poor judgment, carelessness or inattention. Always use common sense and exercise caution in the workshop. If a procedure feels dangerous, don’t try it. Figure out an alternative procedure that feels safer. REMEMBER: Your personal safety is your responsibility.
This machine was designed for certain applications only. Delta Machinery strongly recommends that this machine not be modified and/or used for any application other than that for which it was designed. If you have any questions relative to a particular application, DO NOT use the machine until you have first contacted Delta to determine if it can or should be performed on the product.

WARNING: FAILURE TO FOLLOW THESE RULES MAY RESULT IN SERIOUS PERSONAL INJURY
1.FOR YOUR OWN SAFETY, READ INSTRUCTION MANUAL BEFORE OPERATING THE TOOL. Learn the tool’s application and limitations as well as the specific hazards peculiar to it.
2.KEEP GUARDS IN PLACE and in working order.
3.ALWAYS WEAR EYE PROTECTION. Wear safety glasses. Everyday eyeglasses only have impact resistant lenses; they are not safety glasses. Also use face or dust mask if cutting operation is dusty. These safety glasses must conform to ANSI Z87.1 requirements. NOTE: Approved glasses have Z87 printed or stamped on them.
4.REMOVE ADJUSTING KEYS AND WRENCHES. Form habit of checking to see that keys and adjusting wrenches
are removed from tool before turning it “on”.
5.KEEP WORK AREA CLEAN. Cluttered areas and benches invite accidents.
6.DON’T USE IN DANGEROUS ENVIRONMENT. Don’t use power tools in damp or wet locations, or expose them to rain. Keep work area well-lighted.
7.KEEP CHILDREN AND VISITORS AWAY. All children and visitors should be kept a safe distance from work area.
8.MAKE WORKSHOP CHILDPROOF – with padlocks, master switches, or by removing starter keys.
9.DON’T FORCE TOOL. It will do the job better and be safer at the rate for which it was designed.
10.USE RIGHT TOOL. Don’t force tool or attachment to do a job for which it was not designed.
11.WEAR PROPER APPAREL. No loose clothing, gloves, neckties, rings, bracelets, or other jewelry to get caught in moving parts. Nonslip footwear is recommended. Wear protective hair covering to contain long hair.
12.SECURE WORK. Use clamps or a vise to hold work when practical. It’s safer than using your hand and frees both hands to operate tool.
13.DON’T OVERREACH. Keep proper footing and balance at all times.
14.MAINTAIN TOOLS IN TOP CONDITION. Keep tools sharp and clean for best and safest performance. Follow instructions for lubricating and changing accessories.
15.DISCONNECT TOOLS before servicing and when changing accessories such as blades, bits, cutters, etc.
16.USE RECOMMENDED ACCESSORIES. The use of accessories and attachments not recommended by Delta may cause hazards or risk of injury to persons.
17.REDUCE THE RISK OF UNINTENTIONAL STARTING. Make sure switch is in “OFF” position before plugging in power cord. In the event of a power failure, move switch to the “OFF” position.
18.NEVER STAND ON TOOL. Serious injury could occur if the tool is tipped or if the cutting tool is accidentally contacted.
19.CHECK DAMAGED PARTS. Before further use of the tool, a guard or other part that is damaged should be carefully checked to ensure that it will operate properly and perform its intended function – check for alignment of moving parts, binding of moving parts, breakage of parts, mounting, and any other conditions that may affect its operation. A guard or other part that is damaged should be properly repaired or replaced.
20.DIRECTION OF FEED. Feed work into a blade or cutter against the direction of rotation of the blade or cutter only.
21.NEVER LEAVE TOOL RUNNING UNATTENDED. TURN POWER OFF. Don’t leave tool until it comes to a complete stop.
22.STAY ALERT, WATCH WHAT YOU ARE DOING, AND USE COMMON SENSE WHEN OPERATING A POWER TOOL. DO NOT USE TOOL WHILE TIRED OR UNDER THE INFLUENCE OF DRUGS, ALCOHOL, OR MEDICATION. A moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in serious personal injury.
23.MAKE SURE TOOL IS DISCONNECTED FROM P O W E R S U P P LY w h i l e m o t o r i s b e i n g m o u n t e d , connected or reconnected.
24.THE DUST GENERATED by certain woods and wood products can be injurious to your health. Always operate machinery in well ventilated areas and provide for proper dust removal. Use wood dust collection systems whenever possible.
25. WARNING: SOME DUST CREATED BY POWER SANDING, SAWING, GRINDING, DRILLING, AND OTHER CONSTRUCTION ACTIVITIES contains chemicals known to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. Some examples of these chemicals are:
· lead from lead-based paints,
· crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other masonry products, and
· arsenic and chromium from chemically-treated lumber. Your risk from these exposures varies, depending on how often you do this type of work. To reduce your exposure to these chemicals: work in a well ventilated area, and work with approved safety equipment, such as those dust masks that are specially designed to filter out microscopic particles.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.
Refer to them often and use them to instruct others.

ADDITIONAL SAFETY RULES FOR
UTILITY SHARPENERS
WARNING: FAILURE TO FOLLOW THESE RULES MAY RESULT IN SERIOUS PERSONAL INJURY.
1.DO NOT OPERATE THIS MACHINE until it is assembled and installed according to the instructions.
2.OBTAIN ADVICE FROM YOUR SUPERVISOR, instructor, or another qualified person if you are not familiar with the operation of this machine.
3.FOLLOW ALL WIRING CODES and recommended electrical connections.
4.TO AVOID THE POSSIBILITY OF THE APPLIANCE PLUG OR RECEPTACLE GETTING WET, POSITION MACHINE TO ONE SIDE OF A WALL MOUNTED RECEPTACLE TO PREVENT WATER FROM DRIPPING ONTO THE RECEPTACLE OR PLUG. The user should arrange a “drip loop” in the cord connecting the machine to a receptacle. The “drip loop” is that part of the cord below the level of the receptacle, or the connector if an extension cord is used, to prevent water traveling along the cord and coming in contact with the receptacle.
5.IF THE PLUG OR RECEPTACLE DOES GET WET, DON’T UNPLUG THE CORD. Disconnect the fuse or circuit breaker that supplies power to the machine. Then unplug and examine for presence of water in the receptacle.
6.GROUND FAULT CIRCUIT INTERRUPTER (GFCI) PROTECTION SHOULD BE PROVIDED ON THE CIRCUIT(S) OR OUTLET(S) TO BE USED WITH THE MACHINE.
7.INSPECT GRINDING WHEELS for chips or cracks before starting the machine. DO NOT USE THE
UTILITY SHARPENER IF THE WHEEL IS DAMAGED IN ANY WAY.
8.ADJUST TOOL RESTS close to the grinding wheel (1/8" (3.8mm) separation or less). Tighten the tool rest securely to prevent shifting positions.
9.STAND TO ONE SIDE before turning the machine “ON”.
10.NEVER GRIND ON A COLD GRINDING WHEEL.
Run the grinder at idle speed for one full minute before applying the workpiece.
11.NEVER START THE MACHINE with the workpiece against the grinding wheel.
12.NEVER GRIND NEAR FLAMMABLE GAS OR LIQUIDS. Sparks can create a fire or an explosion.
13.AVOID AWKWARD OPERATIONS AND HAND POSITIONS where a sudden slip could cause a hand to move into the grinding wheel.
14.KEEP ARMS, HANDS, AND FINGERS away from the grinding wheel.
15.HOLD WORK FIRMLY against the tool rests.
16.DRESS THE GRINDING WHEEL on the face only. Dressing the side of the grinding wheel could cause it to become too thin for safe use.
17.GRIND A WORKPIECE using the face of the grinding wheel only.
18.DO NOT TOUCH the ground portion of a workpiece until it has cooled sufficiently. Grinding creates heat.
19.TURN THE MACHINE “OFF” AND DISCONNECT THE MACHINE from the power source before installing or removing accessories, before adjusting or changing set-ups, or when making repairs.
20.TURN THE MACHINE “OFF”, disconnect the machine from the power source, and clean the table/work area before leaving the machine. If your machine has a switch lock-out feature, LOCK THE SWITCH IN THE “OFF” POSITION to prevent unauthorized use.
21.ADDITIONAL INFORMATION regarding the safe and proper operation of this tool is available from the Power Tool Institute, 1300 Summer Avenue, Cleveland, OH 44115-2851. Information is also available from the National Safety Council, 1121 Spring Lake Drive, Itasca, IL 60143-3201.
