WARNING: NO PORTION OF THIS MANUAL MAY BE REPRODUCED IN ANY SHAPE OR FORM WITHOUT

THE WRITTEN APPROVAL OF WOODSTOCK INTERNATIONAL, INC.

#18917JH Printed in Taiwan

This manual provides critical safety instructions on the proper setup, operation, maintenance, and service of this machine/tool. Save this document, refer to it often, and use it to instruct other operators.

Failure to read, understand and follow the instructions in this manual may result in fire or serious personal injury—including amputation, electrocution, or death.

The owner of this machine/tool is solely responsible for its safe use. This responsibility includes but is not limited to proper installation in a safe environment, personnel training and usage authorization, proper inspection and maintenance, manual availability and comprehension, application of safety devices, cutting/sanding/grinding tool integrity, and the usage of personal protective equipment.

The manufacturer will not be held liable for injury or property damage from negligence, improper training, machine modifications or misuse.

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 filter out microscopic particles.

ELECTRICAL EQUIPMENT INJURY RISKS. You can

be shocked, burned, or killed by touching live

machinery. To reduce this risk, only allow an electrician or qualified service personnel to do electrical installation or repair work, and always disconnect power before accessing or exposing electrical equipment.

DISCONNECT POWER FIRST. Always disconnect

machine from power supply BEFORE making adjustments, changing tooling, or servicing machine. This eliminates the risk of injury from unintended startup or contact with live electrical components.

EYE PROTECTION. Always wear ANSI-approved

safety glasses or a face shield when operating or observing machinery to reduce the risk of eye injury or blindness from flying particles. Everyday eyeglasses are not approved safety glasses.

DUST. Dust created while using

machinery may cause cancer, birth defects, or long-term respiratory damage. Be aware of dust hazards associated with each workpiece material, and always wear a NIOSH-approved respirator to reduce your risk.

Always wear hearing protection when operating or observing loud machinery. Extended exposure to this noise without hearing protection can cause permanent hearing loss.

SANDPAPER DIRECTION. Feeding workpiece incor-

To reduce these risks, only sand against direction of sandpaper travel, ensure workpiece is properly supported, and avoid introducing sharp edges into moving sandpaper on the leading side of the workpiece.

WORKPIECE INSPECTION. Nails, staples, knots, or

other imperfections in workpiece can be dislodged and thrown from sander at a high rate of speed at people, or cause damage to sandpaper or sander. Never sand stock that has embedded foreign objects or questionable imperfections.

SANDPAPER CONDITION. Worn or damaged sand-

HAND PLACEMENT. Rotating sandpaper can

remove a large amount of flesh quickly. Always keep hands away from sandpaper during operation. Never touch moving sandpaper on purpose. Use a brush to clean table of sawdust and chips.

FEEDING WORKPIECE. Forcefully jamming work-

piece into sanding surface could cause it to be grabbed aggressively, pulling hands into sanding surface. Firmly grasp workpiece in both hands and ease it into sandpaper using light pressure.

AVOIDING ENTANGLEMENT. Becoming entangled

in moving parts can cause pinching and crushing injuries. To avoid these hazards, keep all guards in place and closed. DO NOT wear loose clothing, gloves, or jewelry, and tie back long hai r.

BE AWARE OF DUST ALLERGIES. Be aware that

certain woods may cause an allergic reaction in people and animals, especially when fine dust is created by buffing. Make sure you know what type of wood dust you will be exposed to in case there is a possibility of an allergic reaction.

AVOID KICKBACK. Avoid kickback by buffing in

accordance with directional arrows. Always buff on the downward side of the wheel—pay close attention to the direction of wheel rotation to avoid placing the workpiece against the upward side of the buffing wheel. Avoid buffing with excessive force.

WORKPIECE SELECTION. Always inspect the con-

dition of your workpiece. DO NOT buff pieces with loose knots, large splinters, protruding nails, or other objects with sharp edges. DO NOT buff cable, chain, or other irregularly shaped objects that may be grabbed by the buffing wheel and thrown at the operator.

WORKPIECE FEED. Allow the wheel to reach full

speed, then slowly ease the workpiece into the buffing wheel, holding it in front of and slightly below the wheel center. DO NOT buff workpiece on the top or sides of the buffing wheel. DO NOT place an edge or corner of the workpiece against the buffing wheel or jam it against the wheel. The workpiece may eject toward the operator or be torn from the operator's hands, causing serious personal injury.

This machine must be connected to the correct size and type of power supply circuit, or fire or electrical damage may occur. Read through this section to determine if an adequate power supply circuit is available. If a correct circuit is not available, a qualified electrician MUST install one before you can connect the machine to power.

A power supply circuit includes all electrical equipment between the breaker box or fuse panel in the building and the machine. The power supply circuit used for this machine must be sized to safely handle the fullload current drawn from the machine for an extended period of time. (If this machine is connected to a circuit protected by fuses, use a time delay fuse marked D.)

This machine is prewired to operate on a power supply circuit that has a verified ground and meets the following requirements:
