e ) Maintain power tools and accesories. 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.
h ) Keep handles and grasping surfaces dry, clean
and free from oil and grease. Slippery handles and
grasping surfaces do not allow for safe handling and
control of the tool in unexpected situations.
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.
Belt Sander Safety Warnings
•
Hold the power tool by insulated gripping surfaces,
because the sanding surface may contact its own
cord. Cutting a "live" wire may make exposed metal parts
of the power tool "live" and could give the operator an
electric shock.
Belt Sander Supplemental Safety
Warnings
•
Always use proper eye protection and a respirator
when sanding.
•
Use clamps or another practical way to secure and
support the workpiece to a stable platform. Holding the
work by hand or against your body leaves it unstable and
may lead to loss of control.
•
Sanding of lead-based paint is not recommended. See
sanding lead Based Paint for additional information
before sanding paint.
•
Clean your tool out periodically.
Do not wet sand with this sander. Liquids may enter
•
the motor housing and cause electric shock.
•
Empty dust bag frequently. Especially when sanding
resin coated surfaces such as polyurethane, varnish,
shellac, etc. The accumulation of fine sanding dust
particles may self ignite and cause fire.
Do not operate this tool for long periods of time.
•
Vibration caused by the operating action of this tool may
cause permanent injury to fingers, hands, and arms. Use
gloves to provide extra cushion, take frequent rest periods,
and limit daily time of use.
•
Sanding of lead-based paint, chemically pressure
treated lumber or other materials that may contain
carcinogens is not recommended. Sanding of these
materials should only be performed by a professional.
ALWAYS disconnect tool from the power source
•
before changing abrasive belts. Such preventive
safety measures reduce the risk of starting the power
tool accidentally.
•
ALWAYS maintain a firm grip with both hands on
the belt sander handles to prevent loss of control.
ALWAYS keep fingers away from the moving belt
•
and areas where the belt enters the housing to avoid
severe abrasion.
•
Do not operate belt sander without all guards and
covers securely in place.
•
To avoid injury, do not use this tool in a stand that
would invert it for use as a stationary belt sander.
This tool is not made for that application.
Specific Safety Warnings and
Instructions: Sanders
Sanding Lead Based Paint
Sanding of lead based paint is NOT RECOMMENDED due
to the difficulty of controlling the contaminated dust.
The greatest danger of lead poisoning is to children and
pregnant women.
Since it is difficult to identify whether or not a paint contains
lead without a chemical analysis, we recommend the
following precautions when sanding any paint:
Personal safety
•
No children or pregnant women should enter the work
area where the paint sanding is being done until all
clean up is completed.
•
A dust mask or respirator should be worn by all persons
entering the work area. The filter should be replaced
daily or whenever the wearer has difficulty breathing.
nOTE: Only those dust masks suitable for working with lead
paint dust and fumes should be used. Ordinary painting
masks do not offer this protection. See your local hardware
dealer for the proper (NIOSH approved) mask.
•
NO EATING, DRINKING or SMOKING should be done in
the work area to prevent ingesting contaminated paint
particles. Workers should wash and clean up BEFORE
eating, drinking or smoking. Articles of food, drink, or
smoking should not be left in the work area where dust
would settle on them.
Environmental safety
•
Paint should be removed in such a manner as to
minimize the amount of dust generated.
•
Areas where paint removal is occurring should be sealed
with plastic sheeting of 4 mils thickness.
•
Sanding should be done in a manner to reduce tracking
of paint dust outside the work area.
