APPROVED OPERATION. Untrained operators can be seriously hurt by machinery. Only allow trained or properly supervised people to use machine. When machine is not being used, disconnect power, remove switch keys, or lock-out machine to prevent unauthorized use—especially around children. Make workshop kid proof!
ONLY USE AS INTENDED. Only use machine for its intended purpose. Never modify or alter machine for a purpose not intended by the manufacturer or serious injury may result!
USE RECOMMENDED ACCESSORIES. Consult this owner’s manual or the manufacturer for recommended accessories. Using improper accessories will increase the risk of serious injury.
CHILDREN & BYSTANDERS. Keep children and bystanders a safe distance away from work area. Stop using machine if children or bystanders become a distraction.
REMOVE ADJUSTING TOOLS. Never leave adjustment tools, chuck keys, wrenches, etc. in or on machine—especially near moving parts. Verify removal before starting!
SECURING WORKPIECE. When required, use clamps or vises to secure workpiece. A secured workpiece protects hands and frees both of them to operate the machine.
FEED DIRECTION. Unless otherwise noted, feed work against the rotation of blades or cutters. Feeding in the same direction of rotation may pull your hand into the cut.
GUARDS & COVERS. Guards and covers can protect you from accidental contact with moving parts or flying debris. Make sure they are properly installed, undamaged, and working correctly before using machine.
NEVER STAND ON MACHINE. Serious injury or accidental contact with cutting tool may occur if machine is tipped. Machine may be damaged.
STABLE MACHINE. Unexpected movement during operations greatly increases the risk of injury and loss of control. Verify machines are stable/secure and mobile bases (if used) are locked before starting.
FORCING MACHINERY. Do not force machine. It will do the job safer and better at the rate for which it was designed.
AWKWARD POSITIONS. Keep proper footing and balance at all times when operating machine. Do not overreach! Avoid awkward hand positions that make workpiece control difficult or increase the risk of accidental injury.
UNATTENDED OPERATION. Never leave machine running while unattended. Turn machine off and ensure all moving parts completely stop before walking away.
MAINTAIN WITH CARE. Follow all maintenance instructions and lubrication schedules to keep machine in good working condition. An improperly maintained machine may increase the risk of serious injury.
CHECK DAMAGED PARTS. Regularly inspect machine for damaged parts, loose bolts, mis-adjusted or mis-aligned parts, binding, or any other conditions that may affect safe operation. Always repair or replace damaged parts, wires, cords, or plugs before operating machine.
MAINTAIN POWER CORDS. When disconnecting cord-connected machines from power, grab and pull the plug—NOT the cord. Pulling the cord may damage the wires inside. Do not handle the cord/plug with wet hands. Avoid cord damage by keeping it away from heated surfaces, high traffic areas, harsh chemicals, and wet or damp locations.
EXPERIENCING DIFFICULTIES. If at any time you are experiencing difficulties performing the intended operation, stop using the machine! Contact our Technical Support for help at (360) 734-3482.

Additional Safety for Air Filters
INTENDED USE. This air filter is designed to capture dust from ambient air in a woodworking shop for a short time after
cutting or sanding operations. DO NOT use this air filter to collect particles of silica, metal, lead paint, asbestos, or hazardous bacterium. DO NOT allow this filter to collect liquids, combustible fumes, burning or smoking material, or toxic fumes.
HAZARDOUS DUST. Dust exposure may cause cancer, birth defects, or long-term respiratory damage. Be aware of the dust hazards associated with each workpiece material, and always wear a NIOSH-approved respirator to reduce your risk.
LEAD PAINT DUST AND ASBESTOS FIBERS. DO NOT try to collect lead paint or asbestos fibers with this machine. Due to the high hazard to human health, these materials must be collected with special equipment.
DUST ALLERGIES. Dust from certain woods may cause an allergic reaction in people and animals. Make sure you know what type of wood dust you will be exposed to in case there is a possibility of an allergic reaction.
WEAR RESPIRATOR. Fine dust that is too small to be caught in the filter will be blown into the ambient air during operation. Wearing a NIOSH approved respirator during this time will reduce your risk of permanent respiratory damage.
EMPTYING DUST. When removing dust from the filters, turn OFF the switch, disconnect power, and wear a respirator and safety glasses. Empty dust away from ignition sources and into an approved container.
DISCONNECTING POWER SUPPLY. Turn the switch OFF, disconnect the air filter from the power supply, and allow the impeller to come to a complete stop before leaving the machine unattended or doing any service, cleaning, maintenance, or adjustments.
REGULAR CLEANING. For best performance, regularly check/clean the filters to avoid the buildup of fine dust. Make sure to regularly clean the surrounding area where the machine is operated—excessive dust buildup on overhead lights, heaters, electrical panels,
or other heat sources will increase the risk of fire.
SUSPENDED DUST PARTICLES AND IGNITION SOURCES. DO NOT operate the air filter in areas where explosion risks are high. Areas of high risk include, but are not limited to, areas near pilot lights, open flames, or other ignition sources.
FIRE SUPPRESSION. Only operate the air filter in locations that contain a fire suppression system or have a fire extinguisher nearby.
IMPELLER HAZARDS. DO NOT place your hands or tools inside the air filter housing during operation for any reason. The powerful suction could easily cause accidental contact with the impeller which could cause serious personal injury or damage to the machine.
OPERATING LOCATION. DO NOT operate the air filter in rainy or wet locations—exposure to water may create a shock hazard or decrease the life of the machine.
USE this and other machinery with caution and respect. Always consider safety first, as it applies to your individual working conditions. No list of safety guidelines can be complete—every shop environment is different. Failure to follow guidelines could result in serious personal injury, damage to equipment or poor work results.
