Operator Safety (Cont.)
Sanding/finishing floors can create an environment that can be
explosive.
The following safety procedures must be adhered to:
• Cigarette lighters, pilot lights, and any other sources of
ignition can create an explosion when active during a sanding
session. All sources of ignition should be extinguished or
removed entirely, if possible, from the work area.
• Work areas that are poorly ventilated can create an explosive
environment when certain combustible materials (solvents,
thinners, alcohol, fuels, certain finishes, wood dust,etc) are in
the atmosphere.
• Floor sanding machines can cause flammable material
and vapors to ignite. Read the manufacturer's label on all
chemicals being used to determine combustibility. Keep the
work area well ventilated.
• Hitting a nail while sanding can cause sparks and create
an explosion or fire. Always use a hammer and punch to
countersink all nails before sanding floors.
Electrocution could occur if the machine is used on a power
circuit that repeatedly trips or is undersized. Have a licensed
electrician check the fuse, breaker, or power supply.
Electrocution could occur if maintenance and repairs are
performed on a unit that is not properly disconnected from the
power source. Disconnect the machine from all power.
Electrocution could occur if the machine is used on an
ungrounded electrical circuit. Never remove or disable the
grounding supply conductor on the electrical cord.
Consult an electrician if the grounding conductor is missing or if
you suspect your circuit is not grounded properly.
Use of this machine with a damaged power cord or plug could
result in an electric shock. DO NOT pull or carry by cord, use
power cord as a handle, close a door on cord, or pull cord
around sharp edges or corners.
DO NOT unplug by pulling on cord. To unplug, grasp the plug,
not the power cord. DO NOT handle plug or operate machine
with wet hands. DO NOT put any objects into motor openings.
Electrocution or injury could occur if the power cord is run over
and damaged by the sanding machines. Keep the cord away
from contact with the sanding heads. Always lift the cord over
the machine and sand away from the cord.
Moving parts on this machine can cause serious injury and or
damage. Keep hands, feet, hair, and loose clothing away from
all moving parts of the unit.
Operating the machine without all guards, doors, or covers in
place can cause an injury or damage.
