Additional Safety Instructions For Power Feeders
18. CHECK DAMAGED PARTS. Before further
use of the tool, 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 align-
ment of moving parts, binding of moving
parts, breakage of parts and any other condi-
tions that may affect its operation. A guard or
other part that is damaged should be proper-
ly repaired or replaced.
19. DIRECTION OF FEED. Feed work into a
blade or cutter against the direction of rota-
tion of the blade or cutter only.
20. NEVER LEAVE TOOL RUNNING UNAT-
TENDED. TURN POWER OFF. Don’t leave
tool until it comes to a complete stop.
5. Replace wheels when they become worn or
disfigured.
6. Do not stand directly in front of or in back of
the workpiece as it is feeding through your
power tool. Stand to one side.
7. Extension cords , if used, must be rated Hard
Service (grade S) or better. Conductor size
must be 14 A.W.G. for cords up to 50 feet in
length. Your extension cord must also con-
tain a ground wire and plug pin. Always
repair or replace extension cords if they
become damaged.
8. Habits – good and bad – are hard to break.
Develop good habits in your shop and safe-
ty will become second-nature to you.
1. Inspect your stock carefully before you feed
it through the machine. If you have any
doubts about the stability or structural
integrity of your stock,
DO NOT USE IT!
2. Never mill stock that has loose knots. All
defects should be cut out of the board before
it is processed.
3. DO NOT jam workpiece into the wheels.
Firmly grasp the workpiece in both hands
and ease it into the rotating wheels. Guide
the workpiece to ensure that it properly con-
tacts the cutterhead or blade.
4. DO NOT place hands near, or in contact with
moving wheels. DO NOT place hands near
any spinning blades or cutterheads.
13. DON’T OVERREACH. Keep proper footing
and balance at all times.
14. MAINTAIN TOOLS WITH CARE. Keep tools
sharp and clean for best and safest perfor-
mance. Follow instructions for lubricating and
changing accessories.
15. DISCONNECT TOOLS before servicing and
changing accessories, such as blades, bits,
cutters, and the like.
16. REDUCE THE RISK OF UNINTENTIONAL
STARTING. Make sure switch is in off posi-
tion before plugging in.
17. USE RECOMMENDED ACCESSORIES.
Consult the owner’s manual for recommend-
ed accessories. The use of improper acces-
sories may cause risk of injury to persons.
