BELT SANDER SAFETY WARNINGS

1. Hold power tool by insulated gripping surfaces,
because the belt may contact its own cord. Cut-
ting a "live" wire may make exposed metal parts of
the power tool "live" and could give the operator an
electric shock.
2. Ventilate your work area adequately when you
perform sanding operations.
3. Some material contains chemicals which may be
toxic. Take caution to prevent dust inhalation
and skin contact. Follow material supplier safety
data.
4. Always use the correct dust mask/respirator for
the material and application you are working
with.
5. Always use safety glasses or goggles. Ordinary
eye or sun glasses are NOT safety glasses.
6. Hold the tool firmly with both hands.
7. Make sure the belt is not contacting the work-
piece before the switch is turned on.
