Additional Safety for Abrasive Tube Notchers

The primary risks of operating a Tube Sander are as follows: You can get seriously injured or
killed if clothing, jewelry, or long hair become entangled in rotating machine parts. You can
get burned or blinded by hot metal particles that fly out during operation. Flying sparks can
ignite explosive or flammable materials, if nearby. Sanding belt will quickly remove skin upon
contact. To reduce your risk of serious injury when operating this machine, completely heed and
understand the following:
PROTECT YOURSELF FROM HOT SPARKS.
ALWAYS wear approved safety glasses or gog-
gles, a face shield, a respirator, hearing protec-
tion, long leather gloves, and a leather apron to
reduce the risk of injury from hot, flying sparks
when operating. Never allow anyone to stand in
path of sparks.
PROTECT YOURSELF FROM ENTANGLEMENT.
Do not wear loose clothing, jewelry or other items
that can get caught in moving parts. Tie back hair
and roll up long sleeves. Never operate machine
with belt cover open.
REDUCE EXPOSURE TO SANDING BELT.
Keep hands away from rotating sanding belt
during operation. Keep deburring station cover
closed when not in use.
REDUCE RISK OF FIRE AND EXPLOSIONS.
This machine creates a shower of hot sparks
that can ignite explosive or flammable materials
nearby. Move these types of materials a safe dis-
tance away.
WEAR RESPIRATOR. Sanding creates large
amounts of fine particles that may cause long-
term respiratory damage. Reduce risk of this
hazard by wearing a respirator when using this
machine.
USE SPARK SHIELD. Properly adjust and lock
spark shield prior to sanding operations.
Model G0767 (Mfd. Since 1/14)
REDUCE RISK OF BURNS. Workpieces and
parts of this machine can get very hot during
operation. Always wear long leather gloves when
operating machine.
REDUCE RISK OF CUTS. This machine creates
burrs, which can cut hands or fingers. Always
wear long leather gloves.
PROPERLY MAINTAIN MACHINE. Keep machine
in proper working condition to help ensure all
guards and other components work as intended
and function safely. Perform routine inspections
and all necessary maintenance, as indicated in
owner's manual. Never operate machine with
damaged or worn parts that can break during
operation.
DISCONNECT POWER FIRST. To reduce the
risk of electrocution or injury from unexpected
startup, make sure machine is turned OFF, dis-
connected from power, and all moving parts have
come to a complete stop before changing sanding
belt or doing any inspection, adjustment, or main-
tenance procedure.
AVOID SUDDEN STARTUP. In the event of a
local power outage during operation, immediately
press Emergency Stop button to avoid a sudden
startup once power is restored.
