Portable Belt Sander & Palm Sander Safety Rules
Belt Sander
1.
Be certain the belt is correctly mounted. The belt MUST be in the
center of the rollers! The adjusting knob is on the side of the
sander.
2.
Inspect the paper to verify that it is useable and not torn!
3.
Make sure the sander’s on-off switch is OFF before plugging in!
4.
Clamp down to work bench ALL material being sanded!
5.
The sanding machine must be at full operating speed before
applying it to the wood surface.
6.
When sanding, do so in a well-ventilated area, preferably away from
other machines and finishing material.
7.
Use a vacuum or a dust collector to collect dust while sanding to
prevent the dispersal over a large area.
Palm Sander
1.
The palm sander is usually used as a finishing sander; make sure
when using on a wood surface that it is used with the grain.
2.
Inspect the sandpaper to verify that it is not torn before using it.
3.
The palm sander must be operated at full speed before applying it to
the wood surface.
4.
DO NOT plane sander near the edge of the work bench because it
can fall off the table and be damaged.
