SECTION 1: SAFETY
For Your Own Safety, Read Instruction
Manual Before Operating this Machine
The purpose of safety symbols is to attract your attention to possible hazardous conditions. This
manual uses a series of symbols and signal words which are intended to convey the level of
importance of the safety messages. The progression of symbols is described below. Remember
that safety messages by themselves do not eliminate danger and are not a substitute for proper
accident prevention measures.
Indicates an imminently hazardous situation which, if not avoided,
WILL result in death or serious injury.
Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided,
COULD result in death or serious injury.
Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided,
MAY result in minor or moderate injury. It may also be used to alert
against unsafe practices.
This symbol is used to alert the user to useful information about
proper operation of the machine.
NOTICE
Safety Instructions for Machinery
1. READ THROUGH THE ENTIRE MANUAL
BEFORE STARTING MACHINERY.
Machinery presents serious injury hazards
to untrained users.
4. ALWAYS USE HEARING PROTECTION
WHEN OPERATING MACHINERY.
Machinery noise can cause permanent
hearing damage.
5. WEAR PROPER APPAREL. DO NOT
wear loose clothing, gloves, neckties, rings,
or jewelry which may get caught in moving
parts. Wear protective hair covering to con-
tain long hair and wear non-slip footwear.
2. ALWAYS USE ANSI APPROVED
SAFETY GLASSES WHEN OPERATING
MACHINERY. Everyday eyeglasses only
have impact resistant lenses, they are
NOT safety glasses.
6. NEVER OPERATE MACHINERY WHEN
TIRED, OR UNDER THE INFLUENCE OF
DRUGS OR ALCOHOL. Be mentally alert
at all times when running machinery.
3. ALWAYS WEAR AN ANSI APPROVED
RESPIRATOR WHEN OPERATING
MACHINERY THAT PRODUCES DUST.
Wood dust is a carcinogen and can cause
cancer and severe respiratory illnesses.

operation instructions are safe and clearly
understood.
WRENCHES. Make a habit of checking for
keys and adjusting wrenches before turn-
ing machinery ON.
18. CHECK FOR DAMAGED PARTS
BEFORE USING MACHINERY. Check
for binding and alignment of parts, broken
parts, part mounting, loose bolts, and any
other conditions that may affect machine
operation. Repair or replace damaged
parts.

Keep all children and visitors a safe dis-
tance from the work area.
9. MAKE WORKSHOP CHILD PROOF. Use
padlocks, master switches, and remove
start switch keys.
19. USE RECOMMENDED ACCESSORIES.
Refer to the instruction manual for recom-
mended accessories. The use of improper
accessories may cause risk of injury.
10. NEVER LEAVE WHEN MACHINE IS
RUNNING. Turn power OFF and allow all

sory was designed.
11. DO NOT USE IN DANGEROUS
ENVIRONMENTS. DO NOT use machin-
ery in damp, wet locations, or where any
flammable or noxious fumes may exist.
21. SECURE WORKPIECE. Use clamps or

Safety Instructions for Spindle Sanders
1. FEED RATE. Never jam a workpiece
against the sanding surface. Firmly hold the
workpiece and ease it against the spindle
using light pressure.
7. SANDING SLEEVES. Worn or damaged
sanding sleeves can tear apart and become
entangled in the spindle. Replace sanding
sleeves promptly as required.
8. FOREIGN MATERIAL. Always inspect
stock for nails, staples, knots, and other
imperfections that could be dislodged and
thrown from the machine during sanding
operations.
2. AVOIDING ENTANGLEMENT. Keep loose
clothing articles such as sleeves, belts or
jewelry items away from the spindle. Never
wear gloves when operating the spindle
sander.
9. DUST COLLECTION. Never operate the
sander without an adequate dust collection
system in place and running.
3. HAND PLACEMENT. Do not place hands
near, or in contact with, sanding surfaces
during operation.
10. DIRECTION. Never sand tapered or point-
ed stock with the point facing the feed direc-
tion.
4. WORKPIECE HANDLING. Hold the
workpiece with both hands, or use the
appropriate jig or miter gauge.
11. POWER DISCONNECT. Disconnect the
machine from the power source before
changing the sanding sleeve.
5. MAINTENANCE.
Perform
machine
inspections and maintenance promptly as
required.
12. RESPIRATOR USE. Always use a respira-
tor that is approved for wood dust when
using this machine. A dust collector is not
an adequate substitute.
6. UNATTENDED MACHINE. Never leave
the machine running unattended.
Like all machines there is danger associ-
ated with the Model G0538. Accidents are
frequently caused by lack of familiarity or
failure to pay attention. Use this machine
with respect and caution to lessen the pos-
sibility of operator injury. If normal safety
precautions are overlooked or ignored, seri-
ous personal injury may occur.
No list of safety guidelines can be complete.
Every shop environment is different. Always
consider safety first, as it applies to your
individual working conditions. Use this and
other machinery with caution and respect.
Failure to do so could result in serious per-
sonal injury, damage to equipment, or poor
work results.

The metal base plate needs to be attached to the
spindle sander before use.
Components and Hardware Needed:
Qty
Tap Screw M4-0.7 x 12..................................... 4
Sander Base Plate ............................................ 1
To attach the sander base plate:
1. Examine the inside of the sander body and
remove any loose packing material found.
Figure 5. Mounting the spindle sander.
Note: Loose packing material inside the
sander body during operation is an imminent
fire hazard.
Dust Collection
2. Attach the base plate to the underside of the
sander with the included M4-0.7 x 12 tap
screws.
To connect a dust collection hose:
1. Fit the 21⁄2" dust hose over the dust port
shown in Figure 6, and secure in place with
a hose clamp.
Mounting
2. Tug the hose to ensure it does not come
off.
We strongly recommend mounting the spindle
sander to a mounting board or workbench before
being used.
Components and Hardware Needed:

Hex Nuts 1⁄4"-20 ................................................. 4
Flat Washers 1⁄4"................................................ 8
Lock Washers 1⁄4" .............................................. 4
To secure the spindle sander to a benchtop or
mounting board:
1. Place the spindle sander on a workbench
or mounting board no smaller than 24"W x
18"D.

2. Using the ⁄4" holes in the sander body as a
template, drill holes through the mounting
board or benchtop as appropriate.
DO NOT operate the Model G0538 without an
adequate dust collection system. This saw
creates substantial amounts of wood dust
while operating. Failure to use a dust collec-
tion system can result in respiratory illness.
3. Secure the spindle sander to the benchtop

or mounting board with ⁄4" hex bolts, wash-
ers, lock washers, and hex nuts as shown in
Figure 5.
