Failure to follow these rules may result in serious personal injury.
For your own safety, read the instruction manual
1.
before operating the machine. Learning the
machine's application, limitations, and specific hazards
will greatly minimize the possibility of accidents and
injury.
ALWAYS USE SAFETY GLASSES. Also use face or
2.
dust mask if cutting operation is dusty. Everyday
eyeglasses only have impact resistant lenses, they are
NOT safety glasses. Use certified safety equipment. Eye
protection equipment should comply with ANSI Z87.1
standards. Hearing equipment should comply with ANSI
S3.19 standards.
Wear proper apparel. Do not wear loose clothing,
3.
gloves, neckties, rings, bracelets, or other jewelry which
may get caught in moving parts. Nonslip protective
footwear is recommended. Wear protective hair covering
to contain long hair.
Do not use the machine in a dangerous
4.
environment. The use of power tools in damp or wet
locations or in rain can cause shock or electrocution.
Keep your work area well-lit to prevent tripping or
placing arms, hands, and fingers in danger.
Do not operate electric tools near flammable
5.
liquids or in gaseous or explosive atmospheres.
Motors and switches in these tools may spark and ignite
fumes.
Maintain all tools and machines in peak
6.
condition. Keep tools sharp and clean for best and
safest performance. Follow instructions for lubricating
and changing accessories. Poorly maintained tools and
machines can further damage the tool or machine and/
or cause injury.
Check for damaged parts. Before using the machine,
7.
check for any damaged parts. Check for alignment
of moving parts, binding of moving parts, breakage
of parts, and any other conditions that may affect its
operation. A guard or any other part that is damaged
should be properly repaired or replaced with DELTA
factory authorized replacement parts. Damaged parts
can cause further damage to the machine and/or injury.
Keep the work area clean. Cluttered areas and
8.
benches can be a contributing factor to accidents in the
shop.
Keep children and visitors away. Your shop is a
9.
potentially dangerous environment. Children and visitors
can be injured.
Reduce the risk of unintentional starting. Make
10.
sure that the switch is in the "OFF" position before
plugging in the power cord. In the event of a power
failure, move the switch to the "OFF" position. An
accidental start-up can cause injury. Do not touch the
plug's metal prongs when unplugging or plugging in the
cord.
Use the guards. Check to see that all safety devices
11.
are in place, secured, and working correctly to prevent
injury.
Remove adjusting keys and wrenches before
12.
starting the machine. Tools, scrap pieces, and other
debris can be thrown at high speed, causing injury.
Use the right machine. Don't force a machine or an
13.
attachment to do a job for which it was not designed.
Damage to the machine and/or injury may result.
GENERAL SAFETY RULES
®
or
5
Use recommended accessories. The use of
14.
accessories and attachments not recommended by
DELTA
®
may cause damage to the machine or injury to
the user.
Use the proper extension cord. Make sure your
15.
extension cord is in good condition. When using an
extension cord, be sure to use one heavy enough to
carry the current your product will draw. An undersized
cord will cause a drop in line voltage, resulting in loss of
power and overheating. See the Extension Cord Chart
on page 8 for the correct size depending on the cord
length and nameplate ampere rating. If in doubt, use the
next heavier gauge. The smaller the gauge number, the
heavier the cord.
Secure the workpiece. Use clamps or a vise to hold
16.
the workpiece when practical. Loss of control of a
workpiece can cause injury.
Feed the workpiece against the direction of the
17.
rotation of the blade, cutter, or abrasive surface.
Feeding it from the other direction will cause the
workpiece to be thrown out at high speed.
Do not force the workpiece on the machine.
18.
Damage to the machine and/or injury may result.
Do not overreach. Loss of balance can make you fall
19.
into a working machine, causing injury.
Never stand on the machine. Injury could occur if the
20.
tool tips, or if you accidentally contact the cutting tool.
Never leave the machine running unattended. Turn
21.
the power OFF. Don't leave the machine until it comes to
a complete stop. A child or visitor could be injured.
Turn the machine "OFF", and disconnect the
22.
machine from the power source before installing
or removing accessories, changing cutters,
adjusting or changing set-ups. When making repairs,
be sure to lock the start switch in the "OFF" position. An
accidental start-up can cause injury.
Make your workshop childproof with padlocks,
23.
master switches, or by removing starter keys.
The accidental start-up of a machine by a child or visitor
could cause injury.
Stay alert, watch what you are doing, and use
24.
common sense. Do not use the machine when you
are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol, or
medication. A moment of inattention while operating
power tools may result in injury.
Use of this tool can generate and disperse dust
or other airborne particles, including wood dust, crystalline silica
dust and asbestos dust. Direct particles away from face and
body. Always operate tool in well ventilated area and provide for
proper dust removal. Use dust collection system wherever
possible. Exposure to the dust may cause serious and permanent
respiratory or other injury, including silicosis (a serious lung
disease), cancer, and death. Avoid breathing the dust, and avoid
prolonged contact with dust. Allowing dust to get into your
mouth or eyes, or lay on your skin may promote absorption of
harmful material. Always use properly fitting NIOSH/OSHA
approved respiratory protection appropriate for the dust
exposure, and wash exposed areas with soap and water.
