Always wear appropriate eye protection at all times.

Always inspect the sanding belt and disc to be sure that they are properly installed and in good condition before starting the machine.

Use moderate pressure and move the material being sanded back and forth to avoid heating and burning.

Keep hands and fingers at least one inch away from the moving belt and disc at all times.

Put the material being sanded on the table and sand only on the down stroke half  of the disc sander.

Long hair and loose clothing must be appropriately confined.
