LHR Technologies, Inc. CarveWright™ System (Rev 1.39) 03/02/09 8
• AVOID AWKWARD OPERATIONS AND HAND POSITIONS where a sudden slip could
cause hands to move into the cutting area.
• NEVER OPERATE THE MACHINE WITHOUT THE MUFFLER BAG IN PLACE. The bag
captures dust and debris from machining operations.
• NEVER LOOK INTO THE VACUUM OUTLET DURING MACHINE OPERATION.
Machining debris could be thrown out at high speed and cause eye injury.
• TURN OFF THE SYSTEM IF A STRANGE NOISE OR HEAVY VIBRATION OCCURS.
Immediately turn off the system. Then locate and correct the source of the problem before
restarting.
• USE A SUPPORT FOR LONG WORKPIECES. To minimize the risk of over stressing the
machine, use a sturdy “outrigger” support when carving a long workpiece more than 36
inches in length. Never substitute a person for a proper support.
• USE RECOMMENDED ACCESSORIES. Using improper accessories may risk injury.
Consult the accessories section for recommended accessories.
• USE ONLY APPROVED CUTTING BITS to ensure quality and to avoid equipment
damage or injury.
• KEEP BITS CLEAN AND SHARP. Sharp bits minimize workpiece burning, poor cut
quality, and stress to the system. Keep bits free of rust, grease, and pitch.
• USE GLOVES TO HANDLE HOT CUTTING BITS. Recently used cutting bits are hot,
and all bits have sharp edges; gloves will help prevent cuts and burns.
• USE ONLY ORIGINAL REPLACEMENT PARTS. Repairs using other than original
replacement parts may create a hazard as well as damage to the machine. To ensure
proper repair using original replacement parts, a qualified service technician at a
CarveWright service center should make all repairs, whether electrical or mechanical.
• DO NOT USE THE TOOL IF THE POWER SWITCH DOES NOT TURN IT ON AND OFF.
Have defective switches replaced by a CarveWright service center.
• CUT ONLY WOOD, PLASTIC OR WOOD-LIKE MATERIALS. Do not cut metal.
• NEVER cut more than one piece at a time.
• DO NOT STACK more than one workpiece in the CarveWright at a time.
• BE SURE THE WORKPIECE PATH IS FREE OF NAILS. Inspect for, and remove all
nails, staples, and protruding features from the lumber before cutting.
• KEEP TOOL DRY, CLEAN, AND FREE FROM OIL AND GREASE. Always use a clean
cloth when cleaning. Never use brake fluids, gasoline, petroleum-based products, or any
solvents to clean the system.
•
DO NOT STAND ON TOOL. Serious injury can occur if tool is tipped or if the cutting tool
is unintentionally contacted.
WARNING: Operation of this tool should not be attempted until all
instructions, safety rules, etc. contained in this manual have been read thoroughly and
understood completely. Failure to do so can result in accidents involving fire, electric
shock, or serious personal injury. Save the operator's manual and review it frequently for
continuing safe operation and for instructing others who may use this tool.
WARNING! Some dust created by power sanding, cutting, and drilling
contains chemicals known to cause cancer, birth defects, allergic reactions, or
reproductive damage. Some examples of these chemicals are: Lead from lead-based
paints, Arsenic, copper, and chromium from chemically treated lumber, Wood resin,
Plastic solvents, and Silica Dust.
To reduce exposure to these chemicals: 1) Work in a well ventilated area, 2) Work with
approved safety equipment, such as dust masks that are specially designed to filter out
microscopic particles AND 3) Keep the machine and work area clean.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Servicing requires much care and specialized
knowledge of the system and should be performed only by a qualified service technician.
For service, return the machine to the nearest repair center in the original packaging.
