14.Keep safety guards in place at all times when the machine is in use. If
removed for maintenance purposes, use extreme caution and replace
the guards immediately when maintenance is complete.
15.Make sure the dust collector is on a flat even surface and the wheels
locked in place before use.
16.Check damaged parts. Before further use of the machine, a guard or
other part that is damaged should be carefully checked to determine
that it will operate properly and perform its intended function. Check
for alignment of moving parts, binding of moving parts, breakage of
parts, mounting and any other conditions that may affect its operation.
A guard or other part that is damaged should be properly repaired or
replaced.
17.Provide for adequate space surrounding work area and non-glare,
overhead lighting.
18.Keep the floor around the machine clean and free of scrap material, oil
and grease.
19.Keep visitors a safe distance from the work area. Keep children
away.
20.Make your workshop child proof with padlocks, master switches or by
removing starter keys.
21.Give your work undivided attention. Looking around, carrying on a
conversation and “horse-play” are careless acts that can result in
serious injury.
22.Maintain a balanced stance at all times so that you do not fall or lean
against the dust collector. Do not overreach or use excessive force to
perform any machine operation.
23.Use the right tool at the correct speed and feed rate. Do not force a
tool or attachment to do a job for which it was not designed. The right
tool will do the job better and safer.
24.Use recommended accessories; improper accessories may be
hazardous.
25.Maintain machinery with care. Follow instructions for lubricating and
changing accessories.
26.Turn off the machine before cleaning. Use a brush or compressed air
to remove dust or debris — do not use your hands.
27.Do not stand on the machine. Serious injury could occur if the machine
tips over.
28.Never leave the machine running unattended. Turn the power off and
do not leave the machine until it comes to a complete stop.
29.Never operate or run the machine without closing the drum up against
the lid. Failure to do so will result in the machine amperage increasing
and may trip your circuit.
