Model g0702 (Mfg. since 1/12)

-11-

The unpainted surfaces of your machine are
coated with a heavy-duty rust preventative that
prevents corrosion during shipment and storage.
This rust preventative works extremely well, but it
will take a little time to clean.

Be patient and do a thorough job cleaning your
machine. The time you spend doing this now will
give you a better appreciation for the proper care
of your machine's unpainted surfaces.

There are many ways to remove this rust preven-
tative, but the following steps work well in a wide
variety of situations. Always follow the manufac-
turer’s instructions with any cleaning product you
use and make sure you work in a well-ventilated
area to minimize exposure to toxic fumes.

Before cleaning, gather the following:

Disposable Rags

Cleaner/degreaser (WD•40 works well)

Safety glasses & disposable gloves

Plastic paint scraper (optional)

Basic steps for removing rust preventative:

1. Put on safety glasses.

2. Coat the rust preventative with a liberal

amount of cleaner/degreaser, then let it soak
for 5–10 minutes.

3. Wipe off the surfaces. If your cleaner/degreas-

er is effective, the rust preventative will wipe
off easily. If you have a plastic paint scraper,
scrape off as much as you can first, then wipe
off the rest with the rag.

4. Repeat Steps 2–3 as necessary until clean,

then coat all unpainted surfaces with a quality
metal protectant to prevent rust.

Gasoline or products

with low flash points can

explode or cause fire if

used to clean machin-

ery. Avoid cleaning with

these products.

Many cleaning solvents

are toxic if concentrat-

ed amounts are inhaled.

Only work in a well-venti-

lated area.

NOTICE

Avoid chlorine-based solvents, such as

acetone or brake parts cleaner, that may

damage painted surfaces. Test all cleaners

in an inconspicuous area before using to

make sure they will not damage paint.

Workbench Load

refer to the

Machine Data Sheet for the weight

and footprint specifications of your machine.
Some workbenches may require additional rein-
forcement to support both the machine and mate-
rials.

placement Location

Consider existing and anticipated needs, size of
material to be processed through each machine,
and space for auxiliary stands, work tables or
other machinery when establishing a location for
your new machine. See

figure 3 for the minimum

working clearances.

Children and visitors may be

seriously injured if unsuper-

vised around this machine.

Lock entrances to the shop

or disable start switch or

power connection to prevent

unsupervised use.

Weight Load

Refer to the

Machine Data Sheet for the weight

of your machine. Make sure that the surface upon
which the machine is placed will bear the weight
of the machine, additional equipment that may be
installed on the machine, and the heaviest work-
piece that will be used. Additionally, consider the
weight of the operator and any dynamic loading
that may occur when operating the machine.

Space Allocation

Consider the largest size of workpiece that will
be processed through this machine and provide
enough space around the machine for adequate
operator material handling or the installation of
auxiliary equipment. With permanent installations,
leave enough space around the machine to open
or remove doors/covers as required by the main-
tenance and service described in this manual.

See below for required space allocation.

Physical Environment

The physical environment where the machine is
operated is important for safe operation and lon-
gevity of machine components. For best results,
operate this machine in a dry environment that is
free from excessive moisture, hazardous chemi-
cals, airborne abrasives, or extreme conditions.
Extreme conditions for this type of machinery are
generally those where the ambient temperature
range exceeds 41°–104°F; the relative humidity
range exceeds 20–95% (non-condensing); or the
environment is subject to vibration, shocks, or
bumps.

Electrical Installation

Place this machine near an existing power source.
Make sure all power cords are protected from
traffic, material handling, moisture, chemicals,
or other hazards. Make sure to leave access to
a means of disconnecting the power source or
engaging a lockout/tagout device, if required.

Lighting

Lighting around the machine must be adequate
enough that operations can be performed safely.
Shadows, glare, or strobe effects that may distract
or impede the operator must be eliminated.

Children or untrained people

may be seriously injured by

this machine. Only install in an

access restricted location.

Minimum 3"
