General Safety Rules - Delta ShopMaster SM600 Manuel D'instructions

Woodworking can be dangerous if safe and proper operating procedures are not followed. As with all machinery, there
are certain hazards involved with the operation of the product. Using the machine with respect and caution will
considerably lessen the possibility of personal injury. However, if normal safety precautions are overlooked or ignored,
personal injury to the operator may result. Safety equipment such as guards, push sticks, hold-downs, featherboards,
goggles, dust masks and hearing protection can reduce your potential for injury. But even the best guard won't make up
for poor judgment, carelessness or inattention. Always use common sense and exercise caution in the workshop. If a
procedure feels dangerous, don't try it. Figure out an alternative procedure that feels safer. REMEMBER: Your
personal safety is your responsibility.
