WARNING

Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and other construction activities contains chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. Some examples of these chemicals are:

• Lead from lead-based paints.

• Crystalline silica from bricks, cement, and other masonry products.

• 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 fil ter out microscopic particles.

SECTION 1: SAFETY

For Your Own Safety, Read Instruction Manual Before Operating this Machine

The purpose of safety symbols is to attract your attention to possible hazardous conditions. This

manual uses a series of symbols and signal words which are intended to convey the level of importance of the safety messages. The progression of symbols is described below. Remember that safety messages by themselves do not eliminate danger and are not a substitute for proper accident prevention measures.

Indicates an imminently hazardous situation which, if not avoided, WILL result in death or serious injury.

Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided, COULD result in death or serious injury.

Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided,

MAY result in minor or moderate injury. It may also be used to alert against unsafe practices.

This symbol is used to alert the user to useful information about

proper operation of the machine.

Safety Instructions for Machinery

1. READ THROUGH THE ENTIRE MANUAL BEFORE STARTING MACHINERY.

Machinery presents serious injury hazards to untrained users.

2. ALWAYS USE ANSI APPROVED SAFETY GLASSES WHEN OPERATING MACHINERY. Everyday eyeglasses only

have impact resistant lenses, they are NOT safety glasses.

4. ALWAYS USE HEARING PROTECTION WHEN

Machinery noise can cause permanent hearing damage.

5. WEAR PROPER APPAREL. DO NOT wear loose clothing, gloves, neckties, rings, or jewelry which may get caught in moving parts. Wear protective hair covering to con tain long hair and wear non-slip footwear.

OPERATING MACHINERY.

3. ALWAYS WEAR AN ANSI APPROVED RESPIRATOR WHEN OPERATING MACHINERY THAT PRODUCES DUST.

Wood dust is cancer and severe respiratory illnesses.

a carcinogen and can cause

6. NEVER OPERATE MACHINERY WHEN TIRED, OR UNDER THE INFLUENCE OF DRUGS OR ALCOHOL. Be mentally alert

at all times when running machinery.

Safety Instructions for Machinery

7. ONLY ALLOW TRAINED AND PROPERLY SUPERVISED PERSONNEL TO OPERATE MACHINERY. Make sure

operation instructions are safe and clearly understood.

8. KEEP CHILDREN AND VISITORS AWAY.

Keep all children and visitors a safe distance from the work area.

9. MAKE WORKSHOP CHILD PROOF. Use padlocks, master switches, and remove start switch keys.

10. NEVER LEAVE WHEN MACHINE IS RUNNING. Turn power OFF and allow all

moving parts to come to a complete stop before leaving machine unattended.

11. DO NOT USE IN DANGEROUS

ENVIRONMENTS. DO NOT use machin-

ery in damp, wet locations, or where any flammable or noxious fumes may exist.

12. KEEP WORK AREA CLEAN AND WELL

LIT. Clutter and dark shadows may cause

accidents.

13. USE A GROUNDED EXTENSION CORD RATED FOR THE MACHINE AMPERAGE.

Undersized cords overheat and lose power. Replace extension cords if they become damaged. DO NOT use extension cords for 220V machinery.

16. MAKE SURE GUARDS ARE IN PLACE AND WORK CORRECTLY BEFORE USING MACHINERY.

17. REMOVE ADJUSTING KEYS AND WRENCHES. Make a habit of checking for

keys and adjusting wrenches before turn ing machinery

18. CHECK FOR DAMAGED PARTS

BEFORE USING MACHINERY. Check

for binding and alignment of parts, broken parts, part mounting, loose bolts, and any other conditions that may affect machine operation. Repair or replace damaged parts.

19. USE RECOMMENDED ACCESSORIES.

Refer to the instruction manual for recom mended accessories. The use of improper accessories may cause risk of injury.

20. DO NOT FORCE MACHINERY. Work at the speed for which the machine or acces sory was designed.

21. SECURE WORKPIECE. Use clamps or a vise to hold the workpiece when practical. A secured workpiece protects your hands and frees both hands to operate the machine.

22. DO NOT OVERREACH. Keep proper foot ing and balance at all times.

ON.

14.

ALWAYS DISCONNECT FROM POWER SOURCE BEFORE SERVICING MACHINERY. Make sure switch is in

position before reconnecting.

15. MAINTAIN MACHINERY WITH CARE. Keep blades sharp and clean for best and safest performance. Follow instructions for lubricating and changing accessories.

OFF

23. MANY MACHINES WILL EJECT THE WORKPIECE TOWARD THE OPERATOR.

Know and avoid conditions that cause the workpiece to "kickback."

24. ALWAYS LOCK MOBILE BASES (IF USED) BEFORE OPERATING MACHINERY.

Additional Safety for Dust Collectors

1. MACHINE USE. DO NOT use this dust

collector to pick up liquids and metal scrap including, but not limited to, nails and fil ings. Also, DO NOT pick up material which cannot safely pass through the impeller, such as solid wood scraps.

2. KEEPING FINGERS SAFE. DO NOT place your hands or tools near the open inlet du ing operation for any reason including, but not limited to, unclogging material and test ing suction. The impeller could cause seri ous damage to body parts if touched while spinning.

3. SAFE SERVICING. Disconnect power and allow impeller to come to a complete stop before servicing or working on the dust col lector ducting system.

4. SUSPENDED DUST PARTICLES AND

IGNITION SOURCES. DO NOT operate the

dust collector in areas where explosion risks would be high if dust were dispersed into the area. Areas of high risk include, but are not limited to, areas near pilot lights and/or open flames.

5. EMPTYING BAGS. When emptying dust

from the collection bags, wear a respirator and safety glasses. Empty dust into an approved container and dispose of properly.

6. AVOIDING FIRES. DO NOT allow steel to strike against impeller, which may pro

duce a spark. Sparks can smolder in wood dust for a long time before fire or flame is detected. If metal contacts metal during operation, immediately turn off the dust col lector, unplug the power cord from the out let, or flip the disconnect switch and wait for all moving parts to stop. Remove collection bags and empty the dust into an approved air tight metal container in case of spark. Remedy the metal to metal contact problem before resuming operation.

7. OPERATIONAL QUESTIONS. If at any time you are experiencing difficulties per forming the intended operation, stop using the machine! Then contact our Service Department or ask a qualified expert how the operation should be performed.

8. DUST HAZARD. Be aware that certain woods may cause an allergic reaction in people and animals, especially when exposed to fine dust. Make sure you know what type of wood dust you will be exposed to in case there is a possibility of an allergic reaction. Always wear an approved respirator!

No list of safety guidelines can be complete. Every shop environment is different. Always consider safety first, as it applies to your individual working conditions. Use this and other machinery with caution and respect. Failure to follow guidelines could result in serious personal injury, damage to equipment or poor work results.

G8027 1 HP Dust Collector -7-

DO NOT use the dust collector for any other purpose besides collecting dust from connected woodworking machines. A dust collector should NEVER be used as an air cleaner. For safest use, wear a respirator and use an air cleaner in addition to the dust collector.
