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 filter out microscopic particles.

SAFETY

READ MANUAL BEFORE OPERATING MACHINE.

FAILURE TO FOLLOW INSTRUCTIONS BELOW WILL

RESULT IN PERSONAL INJURY.

Standard Safety Instructions

1. Thoroughly read the instruction manual before operating your machine. Learn the applications,

limitations and potential hazards of this machine. Keep manual in a safe, convenient place for future reference.

2. Keep work area clean and well lit. Clutter and inadequate lighting invite potential hazards.

3. Ground all tools. If a machine is equipped with a three-prong plug, it must be plugged into a three-

hole grounded electrical receptacle or grounded extension cord. If using an adapter to aid in accommodating a two-hole receptacle, ground using a screw to a known ground.

4. Wear eye protection at all times. Use safety glasses with side shields or safety goggles that meet the appropriate standards of the American National Standards Institute (ANSI).

5. Avoid dangerous environments. DO NOT operate this machine in wet or open flame environments. Airborne dust particles could cause an explosion and severe fire hazard.

6. Ensure all guards are securely in place and in working condition.

7. Make sure the machine power switch is in the OFF position before connecting power to machine.

8. Keep the work area clean, free of clutter, grease, etc.

9. Keep children and visitors away. Visitors should be kept at a safe distance while operating unit.

10. Childproof your workshop with padlocks, master switches or by removing starter keys.

11. Stop and disconnect the machine when cleaning, adjusting or servicing.

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.

This symbol is used to alert the user to useful information about proper operation of the equipment, and/or a situation that may cause damage to the machinery.

SAFETY

-5-

12. DO NOT force tool. The machine will do a safer and better job at the rate for which it was designed.

13. Use correct tool. Do not force machine or attachment to do a job for which it was not designed.

14. Wear proper apparel. Do not wear loose clothing, neck ties, gloves, jewelry, and secure long hair

away from moving parts.

15. Remove adjusting keys, rags, and tools. Before turning the machine on, make it a habit to check that all adjusting keys and wrenches have been removed.

16.

16.Avoid using an extension cord. But if you must,

examine the extension cord to ensure it is in good condition. Use

TABLE 1 to determine the correct

length and gauge of extension cord needed for your particular needs. The amp rating of the motor can be found on its nameplate. If the motor is dual voltage, be sure to use the amp rating for the voltage you will be using. If you use an extension cord with an undersized gauge or one that is too long, excessive heat will be generated within the circuit, increasing the chance of a fire or damage to the circuit. Always use an extension cord that uses a ground pin and connected ground wire. Immediately replace a damaged extension cord.

17. Keep proper footing and balance at all times.

18.DO NOT leave machine unattended. Wait until it comes to a complete stop before leaving the area.

19. Perform machine maintenance and care. Follow lubrication and accessory attachment instructions

in the manual.

20. Keep machine away from open flame. Operating machines near pilot lights and/or open flames creates a high risk if dust is dispersed in the area. Dust particles and an ignition source may cause an explosion. Do not operate the machine in high-risk areas, including but not limited to, those mentioned above.

21. If at any time you are experiencing difficulties performing the intended operation, stop using the machine! Contact our service department or ask a qualified expert how the operation should be performed.

22. Habits—good and bad—are hard to break.

Develop good habits in your shop and safety will become second-nature to you.

Always wear safety glasses or goggles when operating equipment. Operating this equipment creates the potential for flying debris that can cause eye injury. Everyday glasses or reading glasses only have impact resistant lenses, they are not safety glasses. Be certain the safety glasses you wear meet the appropriate standards of the American National Standards Institute (ANSI).

Additional Safety Instructions for Air Cleaners

• ALWAYS secure any aprons, clothing, and long hair away from the intake side of the air cleaner unit and any moving parts.

• ALWAYS research the dangers of the specific species of wood you are working with as dust from some woods are toxic and can make you sick, cause cancer, and lead to long-term respiratory problems.

• ALWAYS use a respirator along with a dust collection system when operating woodworking machinery, and keep the filters of your air cleaner unit clean for optimum performance.

• ALWAYS keep your hands and tools away from the fan output screen during fan operation.

• ALWAYS turn the air cleaner OFF, let the fan and motor come to a complete stop, and unplug the power source before leaving, servicing, adjusting, or troubleshooting the unit.

• ALWAYS keep the filters serviced, and never attempt to replace filters or work on the machine while it is operating.

• ONLY operate this air cleaner unit in dry environments.

• NEVER allow this air cleaner unit to operate in an environment that has volatile fumes from fuels, paints, pesticides, chemicals, smoke; and never operate in an environment that has particles of silica, metal, asbestos, or hazardous bacterium. This air cleaner unit is only designed to remove very fine wood particles from the air. It is not a dust collector.

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

Read and understand this entire instruction manual before using this machine. Serious personal injury may occur if safety and operational information is not understood and followed. Do not risk your safety by not reading!
