SAFETYOPERATIONMAINTENANCE SETUP
Service
Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair person using only identical replacement
parts.
This will ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.
Belt and Non-disc Sander Safety Warnings
1. Hold power tools by insulated gripping
surfaces when performing an operation
where the cutting tool may contact hidden
wiring or its own cord. Contact with a
″live″ wire will make exposed metal parts
of the tool ″live″ and shock the operator.
2. Maintain labels and nameplates on the tool.
These carry important safety information.
If unreadable or missing, contact
Harbor Freight Tools for a replacement.
3. Avoid unintentional starting.
Prepare to begin work before
turning on the tool.
4. Do not lay the tool down until it has come to
a complete stop. Moving parts can grab the
surface and pull the tool out of your control.
5. When using a handheld power tool,
maintain a firm grip on the tool with
both hands to resist starting torque.
6. Do not leave the tool unattended when
it is plugged into an electrical outlet.
Turn off the tool, and unplug it from
its electrical outlet before leaving.
7. This product is not a toy.
Keep it out of reach of children.
8. People with pacemakers should consult their
physician(s) before use. Electromagnetic
fields in close proximity to heart pacemaker
could cause pacemaker interference or
pacemaker failure. In addition, people with
pacemakers should:
• Avoid operating alone.
• Do not use with Trigger locked on.
• Properly maintain and inspect to avoid
electrical shock.
• Properly ground power cord. Ground
Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) should
also be implemented – it prevents
sustained electrical shock.
9. WARNING: Some dust created by power
sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and
other construction activities, contains
chemicals known to the State of California
to cause cancer and birth defects or other
reproductive harm. Some examples of these
chemicals are:
• Lead from lead-based paints
• Crystalline silica from bricks and cement or
other masonry products
• Arsenic and chromium from chemically
treated lumber
Your risk from these exposures varies,
depending on how often you do this type
of work. To reduce your exposure to
these chemicals: work in a well ventilated
area, and work with approved safety
equipment, such as those dust masks
that are specially designed to filter out
microscopic particles. (California Health
& Safety Code § 25249.5, et seq.)
10. WARNING: The cord of this product contains
lead and/or di (2-ethylhexyl) phthalate
(DEHP), chemicals known to the State
of California to cause cancer, and birth
defects or other reproductive harm. Wash
hands after handling. (California Health
& Safety Code § 25249.5, et seq.)
