1.0 IMPORTANT SAFETY
INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING To reduce risk of injury:
1.
Read and understand the entire owner's
manual before attempting assembly or
operation.
2.
Read and understand the warnings posted on
the machine and in this manual. Failure to
comply with all of these warnings may cause
serious injury.
3.
Replace the warning labels if they become
obscured or removed.
4.
This iron worker is designed and intended for
use by properly trained and experienced
personnel only. If you are not familiar with the
proper and safe operation of an iron worker,
do not use until proper training and
knowledge have been obtained.
5.
Do not use this iron worker for other than its
intended use. If used for other purposes, JET
disclaims any real or implied warranty and
holds itself harmless from any injury that may
result from that use.
6.
Always wear ANSI approved safety
glasses/face shields while using this iron
worker. Everyday eyeglasses only have
impact resistant lenses; they are not safety
glasses.
7.
Do not wear loose clothing, gloves, neckties,
rings, bracelets, or other jewelry which may
get caught in moving parts. Wear protective
hair covering to contain long hair. Non-slip
footwear or anti-skid floor strips are
recommended.
8.
Do not operate this machine while tired or
under the influence of drugs, alcohol or any
medication.
9.
Do not exceed the rated capacity of this iron
worker; use hand tools for small or narrow
parts. Do not attempt to cut hardened
materials.
10.
Sheet metal stock has sharp edges. To
prevent cuts, use leather work gloves when
handling.
11.
Keep hands and fingers clear of the moving
areas of the iron worker.
12.
Do not place your hands between material
being machined and the worktable.
13.
Keep safety guards in place at all times when
the machine is in use. If removed for
maintenance purposes, use extreme caution
and replace the guards immediately after
maintenance is complete.
14.
Check damaged parts. Before further use of
the machine, a guard or other part that is
damaged should be carefully checked to
determine that it will operate properly and
perform its intended function. Check for
alignment of moving parts, binding of moving
parts, breakage of parts, mounting and any
other conditions that may affect its operation.
A guard or other part that is damaged should
be properly repaired or replaced.
15.
Provide for adequate space surrounding
work area and non-glare, overhead lighting.
16.
Keep the floor around the machine clean and
free of scrap material, oil and grease.
17.
Keep visitors a safe distance from the work
area. Keep children away.
18.
Make your workshop child proof with
padlocks, master switches or by removing
starter keys.
19.
Give your work undivided attention. Looking
around, carrying on a conversation and
“horse-play” are careless acts that can result
in serious injury.
20.
Stand while operating this equipment. Do
not stand directly in front of the workpiece.
Maintain a balanced stance at all times so
that you do not fall or lean against moving
parts. Do not overreach or use excessive
force to perform any machine operation.
21.
Use the right tool at the correct speed and
feed rate. Do not force a tool or attachment to
do a job for which it was not designed. The
right tool will do the job better and more
safely.
22.
Use recommended accessories; improper
accessories may be hazardous.
23.
Maintain tools with care. Keep tools sharp
and clean for the best and safest
performance. Follow instructions for
lubricating and changing accessories.
24.
Do not stand on the machine. Serious injury
could occur if the machine tips over.
25.
Unplug or lock out power to the machine
when not in use.
