GENERAL POWER TOOL SAFETY WARNINGS

WARNING Read all safety warnings and
all instructions

.

Failure to follow the warnings

and instructions may result in electric shock, fire
and/or serious injury.

Save all warnings and instructions for
future reference

.

The term "power tool" in

the warnings refers to your electric (corded)
power tool or battery-operated (cordless) power
tool.

1. Work area safety

a) Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered

or dark areas invite accidents.

b) Do not operate power tools in explosive
atmospheres, such as in the presence of
flammable liquids, gases or dust. Power tools

create sparks which may ignite the dust or
fumes.

c) Keep children and bystanders away while
operating a power tool. Distractions can cause

you to lose control.

2. Electrical safety

a) Power tool plugs must match the outlet.
Never modify the plug in any way. Do not use
any adapter plugs with grounded power tools.

Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will
reduce risk of electric shock.

b) Avoid body contact with grounded surfaces,
such as pipes, radiators, ranges and
refrigerators. There is an increased risk of

electric shock if your body is grounded.

c) Do not expose power tools to rain or wet
conditions. Water entering a power tool will

increase the risk of electric shock.

d) Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for
carrying, pulling or unplugging the power tool.
Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or
moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords

increase the risk of electric shock.

e) When operating a power tool outdoors, use an
extension cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of a

cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of
electric shock.

f) If operating a power tool in a damp location is
unavoidable, use a residual current device (RCD)
protected supply. Use of an RCD reduces the risk

of electric shock.

3. Personal safety

a) Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use
common sense when operating a power tool. Do
not use a power tool while you are tired or under
the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A

moment of inattention while operating power
tools may result in serious personal injury.

b) Use personal protective equipment. Always
wear eye protection. Protective equipment such

as dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or
hearing protection used for appropriate conditions
will reduce personal injuries.

c) Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the
switch is in the off position before connecting to
power source and/or battery pack, picking up or
carrying the tool. Carrying power tools with your

finger on the switch or energising power tools that
have the switch on invites accidents.

d) Remove any adjusting key or wrench before
turning the power tool on. A wrench or a key left

attached to a rotating part of the power tool may
result in personal injury.

BM16 02

GENERAL POWER TOOL SAFETY WARNINGS

e) Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and
balance at all times. This enables better control

of the power tool in unexpected situations.

f) Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or
jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves
away from moving parts. Loose clothes,

jewellery or long hair can be caught in moving
parts.

g) If devices are provided for the connection of
dust extraction and collection facilities, ensure
these are connected and properly used. Use of

dust collection can reduce dust-related hazards.

4. Power tool use and care

a) Do not force the power tool. Use the correct
power tool for your application. The correct

power tool will do the job better and safer at the
rate for which it was designed.

b) Do not use the power tool if the switch does
not turn it on and off. Any power tool that

cannot be controlled with the switch is
dangerous and must be repaired.

c) Disconnect the plug from the power source
and/or the battery pack from the power tool
before making any adjustments, changing
accessories, or storing power tools. Such

preventive safety measures reduce the risk of
starting the power tool accidentally.

d) Store idle power tools out of the reach of
children and do not allow persons unfamiliar
with the power tool or these instructions to
operate the power tool. Power tools are

dangerous in the hands of untrained users.

e) Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment
or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and
any other condition that may affect the power
tool’s operation. If damaged, have the power tool
repaired before use. Many accidents are caused

by poorly maintained power tools.

f) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly
maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges
are less likely to bind and are easier to control.

g) Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits
etc. in accordance with these instructions, taking
into account the working conditions and the work
to be performed. Use of the power tool for

operations different from those intended could
result in a hazardous situation.

5. Service

a) Have your power tool serviced by a qualified
repair person using only identical replacement
parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power

tool is maintained.

b) If the replacement of the supply cord is
necessary, this has to be done by the
manufacturer or its agent in order to avoid a
safety hazard.

6. Battery Tool Use and Care

a) Recharge only with the charger specified by
the manufacturer. A charger that is suitable for

one type of battery pack may create a risk of fire
when used with another battery pack.

b) Use power tools only with specifically
designated battery packs. Use of any other

battery packs may create a risk of injury or fire.

BM16 03

GENERAL POWER TOOL SAFETY WARNINGS

c) When Battery pack is not in use, keep it away
from other metal objects, like paper clips, coins,
keys, nails, screws or other small metal object
that can make a connection from one terminal
to another. Shorting the battery terminals

together may cause burns or a fire.

d) User abusive conditions, liquid may be
ejected from the battery; Avoid contact. If
contact accidentally occurs, flush with copious
amounts of water. If liquid contacts eyes, seek
medical help immediately. Liquid ejected from

the batter may cause irritation or burns.

7. Additional Safety and Working
Instructions

a) Dusts from materials such as lead-containing
coatings, some wood types, minerals and
metals can be harmful to one’s health and
cause allergic reactions, leading to respiratory
infections and/or cancer. Materials containing

asbestos may only be worked by specialists.
Observe the relevant regulations in your country
for the materials to be worked.

b) Prevent dust accumulation at the workplace.

Dusts can easily ignite.

8. Additional Safety Warning for hollow
chisel mortisers

a) DO NOT OPERATE THIS MACHINE until it is
assembled and installed according to the
instructions.

b) OBTAIN ADVICE FROM YOUR SUPERVISOR,
instructor, or another qualified person if you are not

familiar with the operation of this machine.

c) FOLLOW ALL WIRING CODES and recommended
electrical connections.

d) MAKE CERTAIN the machine is fastened to a

e) NEVER turn the mortiser “ON” before clearing
the table of all objects (tools, scrap pieces, etc.).

f) ALWAYS keep hands, fingers and hair away from the
rotating bit.

g) DO NOT attempt to mortise material that does not
have a flat surface, unless a suitable support is used.

h) ALWAYS position holddown directly over workpiece
to prevent workpiece from lifting during operation.

i) ALWAYS support workpiece securely against fence to
prevent rotation.

j) BE SURE drill bit is sharp, not damaged, and properly
secured in the chuck before operation.

k) MAKE SURE chuck key is removed before starting
machine.

l) NEVER turn on the power with the drill bit or chisel
contacting the workpiece.

m) NEVER perform layout, assembly, or set-up work on
the table while the mortiser is operating.

n) ADJUST the depth stop to avoid drilling into the
table.

o) ALWAYS turn off the power before removing scrap
pieces from the table.

p) SHUT-OFF the power, remove the drill bit and chisel,
and clean the table before leaving the machine.

q) FOR YOUR OWN SAFETY – Don’t wear gloves
when operating the machine.

r) SHOULD any part of your tool be missing, damaged,
or fail in any way, or any electrical component fail to
perform properly, shut off switch and remove plug
from power supply outlet. Replace missing, damaged,

BM16 04

GENERAL POWER TOOL SAFETY WARNINGS

s) THE USE of attachments and accessories not
recommended by Delta may result in the risk of
injuries.

t) 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.

u) TURN THE MACHINE “OFF”, disconnect the
machine from the power source, and clean the
table/work area before leaving the machine. LOCK
THE SWITCH IN THE “OFF” POSITION to prevent
unauthorized use.

9. Using an Extension Cable

.

a) If an extension cable is required, use an
approved triple core extension cable suitable for
the power input of the tool.

b) Grounded tools always require a three wire
extension cable.

c) As the distance from the supply outlet
increases you must use a heavier gauge
extension cable. Using extension cables with
inadequately sized wire causes a serious drop in
voltage, resulting in loss of power and possible
tool damage.

d) The smaller the gauge number of the wire the
greater the capacity of the cord.

e) When using a cable reel, always unwind the
cable completely.

MAINTENANCE AND SERVICE

Maintenance and Service

The Mortiser requires only minor maintenance,
such as cleaning and lubrication and routine
adjustment and sharpening of the chisel and bit.

Dust the machine down after each use and, as
necessary, use light applications of oil or grease
to lubricate linkages, moving parts, etc.

SHARPENING CHISEL & BIT

The chisel and bit should be kept sharp for best
performance. Blunt edges will give inaccurate

mortises and can lead to overheating and
breakage to chisel or bit. If chisel and bit are
badly worn and become difficult to sharpen,
they should be replaced.

1. Sharpen the bit by using a small, smooth file,
following the original shape of the bit. File the
inside edge of the spur, the sides of the brad
point, and the cutting edge inwards toward the
flute of the bit. See Fig. 8. Do not file the outside
edge of the spur as this will affect the diameter
of the bit.

2. Sharpen the chisel with a mortise chisel cutter
with the correct size pilot. (Pilot size will differ
depending on the size of your chisel). Two or
three turns of the cutter in a carpenter's brace
chuck should be enough to sharpen the chisel, as
shown in Figure.

3. Use a small, triangular, smooth file to relieve
the inner corners of the chisel. See Figure. Remove
any burrs from the outside of the chisel with a fine
oilstone.
