Like all power tools, there is danger asso-

ciated with the Model G9922 Oscillating

Spindle Sander. Accidents are frequently

caused by lack of familiarity or failure to

pay attention. use this tool with respect and

caution to lessen the possibility of opera-

tor injury. If normal safety precautions are

overlooked or ignored, serious personal

injury may occur.

No list of safety guidelines can be com-

plete. Every shop environment is different.

Always consider safety first, as it applies

to your individual working conditions. use

this and other machinery with caution and

respect. failure to follow guidelines could

result in serious personal injury, damage to

equipment or poor work results.

Operation of this equipment has the poten-

tial to propel debris into the air which can

cause eye injury. Always wear safety glass-

es or goggles when operating equipment.

Everyday glasses or reading glasses only

have impact resistant lenses, they are not

safety glasses. be certain the safety glass-

es you wear meet the appropriate stan-

dards of the American National Standards

Institute (ANSI).
