SECTION 1: SAFETY For Your Own Safety, Read Instruction Manual Before Operating this Machine The purpose of safety symbols is to attract your attention to possible hazardous conditions. This manual uses a series of symbols and signal words intended to convey the level of importance of the safety messages. The progression of symbols is described below. Remember that safety messages by themselves do not eliminate danger and are not a substitute for proper accident prevention measures.
Safety Instructions for Machinery 7. ONLY ALLOW TRAINED AND PROPERLY SUPERVISED PERSONNEL TO OPERATE MACHINERY. Make sure operation instructions are safe and clearly understood. 8. KEEP CHILDREN AND VISITORS AWAY. Keep all children and visitors a safe distance from the work area. 9. MAKE WORKSHOP CHILDPROOF. Use padlocks, master switches, and remove start switch keys. 10.

Assembly Dust Collection To assemble your machine: 1. Slide the table over the sanding belt, then attach it to the machine base with the M8-1.25 x 25 hex bolt, 8mm external tooth washer, and the table lock lever, as shown in (Figure 5). This sander creates wood dust while operating. We recommend using the Model H3140 with an adequate dust collection system. Failure to use a dust collection system can result in short and long-term respiratory illness. Required CFM at 2" Dust Port: Figure 5.
