NOTICE

Safety Instructions for Machinery

SECTION 1: SAFETY

Model G1015 (Mfg. since 7/99)

-7-

WEARING PROPER APPAREL. Do not wear

clothing, apparel or jewelry that can become

entangled in moving parts. Always tie back or

cover long hair. Wear non-slip footwear to reduce

risk of slipping and losing control or accidentally

contacting cutting tool or moving parts.

HAZARDOUS DUST. Dust created by machinery

operations may cause cancer, birth defects, or

long-term respiratory damage. Be aware of dust

hazards associated with each workpiece mate-

rial. Always wear a NIOSH-approved respirator to

reduce your risk.

HEARING PROTECTION. Always wear hear-

ing protection when operating or observing loud

machinery. Extended exposure to this noise

without hearing protection can cause permanent

hearing loss.

REMOVE ADJUSTING TOOLS. Tools left on

machinery can become dangerous projectiles

upon startup. Never leave chuck keys, wrenches,

or any other tools on machine. Always verify

removal before starting!

USE CORRECT TOOL FOR THE JOB. Only use

this tool for its intended purpose—do not force

it or an attachment to do a job for which it was

not designed. Never make unapproved modifica-

tions—modifying tool or using it differently than

intended may result in malfunction or mechanical

failure that can lead to personal injury or death!

AWKWARD POSITIONS. Keep proper footing

and balance at all times when operating machine.

Do not overreach! Avoid awkward hand positions

that make workpiece control difficult or increase

the risk of accidental injury.

CHILDREN & BYSTANDERS. Keep children and

bystanders at a safe distance from the work area.

Stop using machine if they become a distraction.

GUARDS & COVERS. Guards and covers reduce

accidental contact with moving parts or flying

debris. Make sure they are properly installed,

undamaged, and working correctly BEFORE

operating machine.

FORCING MACHINERY. Do not force machine.

It will do the job safer and better at the rate for

which it was designed.

NEVER STAND ON MACHINE. Serious injury

may occur if machine is tipped or if the cutting

tool is unintentionally contacted.

STABLE MACHINE. Unexpected movement dur-

ing operation greatly increases risk of injury or

loss of control. Before starting, verify machine is

stable and mobile base (if used) is locked.

USE RECOMMENDED ACCESSORIES. Consult

this owner’s manual or the manufacturer for rec-

ommended accessories. Using improper acces-

sories will increase the risk of serious injury.

UNATTENDED OPERATION. To reduce the

risk of accidental injury, turn machine OFF and

ensure all moving parts completely stop before

walking away. Never leave machine running

while unattended.

MAINTAIN WITH CARE. Follow all maintenance

instructions and lubrication schedules to keep

machine in good working condition. A machine

that is improperly maintained could malfunction,

leading to serious personal injury or death.

DAMAGED PARTS. Regularly inspect machine

for damaged, loose, or mis-adjusted parts—or

any condition that could affect safe operation.

Immediately repair/replace BEFORE operating

machine. For your own safety, DO NOT operate

machine with damaged parts!

MAINTAIN POWER CORDS. When disconnect-

ing cord-connected machines from power, grab

and pull the plug—NOT the cord. Pulling the cord

may damage the wires inside. Do not handle

cord/plug with wet hands. Avoid cord damage by

keeping it away from heated surfaces, high traffic

areas, harsh chemicals, and wet/damp locations.

EXPERIENCING DIFFICULTIES. If at any time

you experience difficulties performing the intend-

ed operation, stop using the machine! Contact our

Technical Support at (570) 546-9663.

Model G1015 (Mfg. since 7/99)

Serious injury or death can occur from fingers, clothing, jewelry, or hair getting entangled in

rotating disc, belt, spindle or other moving components. Abrasion injuries can occur from

touching moving sandpaper with bare skin. Workpieces thrown by sanding surface can strike

operator or bystanders with moderate force, causing impact injuries. Long-term respiratory

damage can occur from using sander without proper use of a respirator. To reduce the risk of

these hazards, operator or bystanders MUST completely heed the hazards and warnings below.

WORKPIECE INSPECTION. Nails, staples, knots,

or other imperfections in workpiece can be dis-

lodged and thrown from sander at a high rate of

speed at people, or cause damage to sandpaper

or sander. Never sand stock that has embedded

foreign objects or questionable imperfections.

SANDPAPER CONDITION. Worn or damaged

sandpaper can fly apart and throw debris at

operator, or aggressively grab workpiece, result-

ing in subsequent injuries from operator loss

of workpiece control. Always inspect sandpaper

before operation and replace if worn or damaged.

IN-RUNNING NIP POINTS. The gap between

moving sandpaper and fixed table/support cre-

ates a pinch point for fingers or workpieces; the

larger this gap is, the greater the risk of fingers or

workpieces getting caught in it. Minimize this risk

by adjusting table/support to no more than

⁄16”

away from sandpaper. For spindle sanders, always

use the table insert that fits closest diameter of

installed drum.

MINIMUM STOCK DIMENSION. Small workpieces

can be aggressively pulled from your hands, caus-

ing contact with sanding surface. Always use a

jig or other holding device when sanding small

workpieces, and keep hands and fingers at least

2” away from sanding surface.

WORKPIECE INTEGRITY. Sanding fragile

workpieces can result in loss of control, resulting

in abrasion injuries, impact injuries, or damage

to sandpaper. Only sand solid workpieces that

can withstand power sanding forces. Make sure

workpiece shape is properly supported; avoid

sanding workpieces without flat bottom surfaces

unless some type of jig is used to maintain support

and control when sanding force is applied.

SANDPAPER DIRECTION. Feeding workpiece

incorrectly can cause it to be thrown from machine,

striking operator or bystanders, or causing your

hands to slip into the moving sandpaper. To reduce

these risks, only sand against direction of sandpa-

per travel, ensure workpiece is properly supported,

and avoid introducing sharp edges into moving

sandpaper on the leading side of the workpiece.

HAND PLACEMENT. Rotating sandpaper can

remove a large amount of flesh quickly. Always

keep hands away from sandpaper during opera-

tion. Never touch moving sandpaper on purpose.

Use a brush to clean table of sawdust and chips.

FEEDING WORKPIECE. Forcefully jamming

workpiece into sanding surface could cause it to

be grabbed aggressively, pulling hands into sand-

ing surface. Firmly grasp workpiece in both hands

and ease it into sandpaper using light pressure.

AVOIDING ENTANGLEMENT. Becoming entan-

gled in moving parts can cause pinching and

crushing injuries. To avoid these hazards, keep all

guards in place and closed. DO NOT wear loose

clothing, gloves, or jewelry, and tie back long hair.

WORKPIECE SUPPORT. Workpiece kickback

can occur with violent force if workpiece is not

properly supported during operation. Always sand

with workpiece firmly against table or another sup-

port device.

SANDING DUST. Sanding creates large amounts

of dust that can lead to eye injury or respira-

tory illness. Reduce your risk by always wearing

approved eye and respiratory protection when

using sander. Never operate without adequate

dust collection system in place and running.

However, dust collection is not a substitute for

using a respirator.

Availability

Before installing the machine, consider the avail-

ability and proximity of the required power supply

circuit. If an existing circuit does not meet the

requirements for this machine, a new circuit must

be installed. To minimize the risk of electrocution,

fire, or equipment damage, installation work and

electrical wiring must be done by an electrician or

qualified service personnel in accordance with all

applicable codes and standards.

Electrocution, fire, shock,

or equipment damage

may occur if machine is

not properly grounded

and connected to power

supply.

Full-Load Current Rating

The full-load current rating is the amperage a

machine draws at 100% of the rated output power.

On machines with multiple motors, this is the

amperage drawn by the largest motor or sum of all

motors and electrical devices that might operate

at one time during normal operations.

Full-Load Current Rating at 110V ...... 14 Amps

The full-load current is not the maximum amount

of amps that the machine will draw. If the machine

is overloaded, it will draw additional amps beyond

the full-load rating.

If the machine is overloaded for a sufficient length

of time, damage, overheating, or fire may result—

especially if connected to an undersized circuit.

To reduce the risk of these hazards, avoid over-

loading the machine during operation and make

sure it is connected to a power supply circuit that

meets the specified circuit requirements.

For your own safety and protection of

property, consult an electrician if you are

unsure about wiring practices or electrical

codes in your area.

Note: Circuit requirements in this manual apply to

a dedicated circuit—where only one machine will

be running on the circuit at a time. If machine will

be connected to a shared circuit where multiple

machines may be running at the same time, con-

sult an electrician or qualified service personnel to

ensure circuit is properly sized for safe operation.

A power supply circuit includes all electrical

equipment between the breaker box or fuse panel

in the building and the machine. The power sup-

ply circuit used for this machine must be sized to

safely handle the full-load current drawn from the

machine for an extended period of time. (If this

machine is connected to a circuit protected by

fuses, use a time delay fuse marked D.)

110V Circuit Requirements

This machine is prewired to operate on a power

supply circuit that has a verified ground and meets

the following requirements:

Nominal Voltage .................... 110V, 115V, 120V

Cycle ..........................................................60 Hz

Phase ........................................... Single-Phase

Power Supply Circuit ......................... 20 Amps

Serious injury could occur if you connect

machine to power before completing setup

process. DO NOT connect to power until

instructed later in this manual.

SECTION 2: POWER SUPPLY

-10-

Model G1015 (Mfg. since 7/99)

Improper connection of the equipment-grounding

wire can result in a risk of electric shock. The

wire with green insulation (with or without yellow

stripes) is the equipment-grounding wire. If repair

or replacement of the power cord or plug is nec-

essary, do not connect the equipment-grounding

wire to a live (current carrying) terminal.

Check with a qualified electrician or service per-

sonnel if you do not understand these grounding

requirements, or if you are in doubt about whether

the tool is properly grounded. If you ever notice

that a cord or plug is damaged or worn, discon-

nect it from power, and immediately replace it with

a new one.

Extension Cords

We do not recommend using an extension cord

with this machine.

If you must use an extension

cord, only use it if absolutely necessary and only

on a temporary basis.

Extension cords cause voltage drop, which can

damage electrical components and shorten motor

life. Voltage drop increases as the extension cord

size gets longer and the gauge size gets smaller

(higher gauge numbers indicate smaller sizes).

Any extension cord used with this machine must

be in good condition and contain a ground wire

and matching plug/receptacle. Additionally, it must

meet the following size requirements:

Minimum Gauge Size ...........................14 AWG

Maximum Length (Shorter is Better).......50 ft.

Grounding & Plug Requirements

SHOCK HAZARD!

Two-prong outlets do not meet the grounding

requirements for this machine. Do not modify

or use an adapter on the plug provided—if

it will not fit the outlet, have a qualified

electrician install the proper outlet with a

verified ground.

This machine MUST be grounded. In the event

of certain malfunctions or breakdowns, grounding

reduces the risk of electric shock by providing a

path of least resistance for electric current.

This machine is equipped with a power cord that

has an equipment-grounding wire and a grounding

plug. Only insert plug into a matching receptacle

(outlet) that is properly installed and grounded in

accordance with all local codes and ordinances.

DO NOT modify the provided plug!

Model G1015 (Mfg. since 7/99)

The unpainted surfaces of your machine are

coated with a heavy-duty rust preventative that

prevents corrosion during shipment and storage.

This rust preventative works extremely well, but it

will take a little time to clean.

Be patient and do a thorough job cleaning your

machine. The time you spend doing this now will

give you a better appreciation for the proper care

of your machine's unpainted surfaces.

There are many ways to remove this rust preven-

tative, but the following steps work well in a wide

variety of situations. Always follow the manufac-

turer’s instructions with any cleaning product you

use and make sure you work in a well-ventilated

area to minimize exposure to toxic fumes.

Before cleaning, gather the following:

• Disposable rags

• Cleaner/degreaser (WD•40 works well)

• Safety glasses & disposable gloves

• Plastic paint scraper (optional)

Basic steps for removing rust preventative:

Put on safety glasses.

Coat the rust preventative with a liberal

amount of cleaner/degreaser, then let it soak

for 5–10 minutes.

Wipe off the surfaces. If your cleaner/degreas-

er is effective, the rust preventative will wipe

off easily. If you have a plastic paint scraper,

scrape off as much as you can first, then wipe

off the rest with the rag.

Repeat Steps 2–3 as necessary until clean,

then coat all unpainted surfaces with a quality

metal protectant to prevent rust.

Gasoline and petroleum

products have low flash

points and can explode

or cause fire if used to

clean machinery. Avoid

using these products

to clean machinery.

Many cleaning solvents

are toxic if inhaled. Only

work in a well-ventilated

area.

NOTICE

Avoid chlorine-based solvents, such as

acetone or brake parts cleaner, that may

damage painted surfaces.

Weight Load

Refer to the

Machine Data Sheet for the weight

of your machine. Make sure that the surface upon

which the machine is placed will bear the weight

of the machine, additional equipment that may be

installed on the machine, and the heaviest work-

piece that will be used. Additionally, consider the

weight of the operator and any dynamic loading

that may occur when operating the machine.

Space Allocation

Consider the largest size of workpiece that will

be processed through this machine and provide

enough space around the machine for adequate

operator material handling or the installation of

auxiliary equipment. With permanent installations,

leave enough space around the machine to open

or remove doors/covers as required by the main-

tenance and service described in this manual.

See below for required space allocation.

Physical Environment

The physical environment where the machine is

operated is important for safe operation and lon-

gevity of machine components. For best results,

operate this machine in a dry environment that is

free from excessive moisture, hazardous chemi-

cals, airborne abrasives, or extreme conditions.

Extreme conditions for this type of machinery are

generally those where the ambient temperature

range exceeds 41°–104°F; the relative humidity

range exceeds 20%–95% (non-condensing); or

the environment is subject to vibration, shocks,

or bumps.

Electrical Installation

Place this machine near an existing power source.

Make sure all power cords are protected from

traffic, material handling, moisture, chemicals, or

other hazards. Make sure to leave enough space

around machine to disconnect power supply or

apply a lockout/tagout device, if required.

Lighting

Lighting around the machine must be adequate

enough that operations can be performed safely.

Shadows, glare, or strobe effects that may distract

or impede the operator must be eliminated.

Children or untrained people

may be seriously injured by

this machine. Only install in an

access restricted location.

Assembly

Mounting

The Model G1015 is a top-heavy machine.

Pressure applied to the sanding arm during

operation could easily tip the machine over,

causing personal injury or property damage. To

prevent this, you must firmly mount this machine

to a flat, stable surface, such as a workbench,

before beginning operations.

Note: During assembly, the position of the sanding

arm bracket will change in relation to the motor

assembly. DO NOT mount the machine to a

surface until instructed to in the setup procedure.

The base of the motor assembly and the sanding

arm bracket have eight holes for mounting the

machine to a workbench. The strongest mounting

option is a "Through Mount," where holes are

drilled all the way through the workbench, and hex

bolts, washers, and hex nuts are used to secure

the machine to the workbench.

Another option for mounting is a "Direct Mount"

where the machine is simply secured to the work-

bench with a lag screw.

This machine is top heavy and could easily

tip over during operation and cause seri-

ous personal injury or property damage.

You MUST firmly mount the machine to a

level, stable surface before connecting it to

power.

To assemble this machine:

1. Slide the mounting adapter onto the right-

hand arbor of the motor assembly with the

countersunk holes facing out, then rotate it so

that the flat edge is at the 10 o'clock position,

as shown in Figure 8.

2. Secure the adapter to the motor assembly

with (3)

⁄4"-20 x

⁄2" cap screws.

3. Back out the cap screws and set screws

in the pivot arm mounting bracket and the

pivot arm bracket, then slide the arm bracket

onto the mounting bracket, as shown in

Figures 9–10.

Note: The pivot arm bracket bushing is

shipped with a lubricating grease coating on

its outside surface. This lubricant will keep

the motion of the pivot arm smooth during

operation and reduce the wear on the metal-

to-metal surfaces.

4. For now, finger-tighten the three cap screws

enough to hold the parts together. You will

fully tighten these fasteners in a later step.

Note: Make sure the four set screws do

not make contact with the other part of the

assembly.

5. Slide the arm bracket assembly onto the

right-hand arbor with the arm bracket bush-

ing facing out, as shown in Figure 11, then

secure it with the remaining (3)

⁄4"-20 x

⁄2"

cap screws.

6. Move the machine to the selected mounting

surface, and use the eight holes in the base

of the motor assembly and the arm bracket

assembly as a template for drilling the mount-

ing holes.

7. Loosen the three cap screws of the pivot arm

bracket assembly (see Figures 9–10), then

use the mounting hardware you have chosen

to firmly secure the motor assembly and the

bracket assembly in place.

Note: Before fully tightening the mounting

hardware, make sure that the three cap

screws and four set screws of the arm brack-

et assembly are loose. This will allow the

mounting bracket to lay flat on the mounting

surface.

8. Tighten the four set screws in the arm bracket

assembly (see Figures 9–10) just until you

feel resistance. This will keep the two parts

of the assembly stable during operation.

9. Fully tighten the three cap screws on the arm

bracket assembly.

11. Slide the drive wheel onto the right-hand

arbor with a drive wheel flange (

⁄4" center

bore) on each side, then secure it in place

with the remaining

⁄4"-16 arbor hex nut (see

Figure 13).

Note: It may be necessary to use a dead-

blow hammer to seat the drive wheel onto

the arbor. Take great care not to damage the

drive wheel or the threads of the arbor.

12. Remove the two threaded knobs and flat

washers from the sanding arm assembly,

insert the shaft into the pivot arm tube until

the lock collar rests on top of the tube, as

shown in Figure 14, then re-install the knobs

and flat washers to hold it in place.

13. Install the quick release lever knob as shown

in Figure 14.

14. Install the platen bracket onto the pivot arm

with the pre-installed hardware, as shown in

Figure 15.

10. Back out the two set screws in the round

housing of the pivot arm, slide the arm onto

the bracket bushing so that the platen bracket

cap screws are facing to the right, as shown

in Figure 12, then tighten the set screws to

hold the pivot arm in place.

Note: The pivot arm and bushing are designed

so that the set screws tighten into the grooved

surface of the bushing. This keeps the pivot

arm from sliding off the bushing when using

the tilt feature.

15. Install the sanding platen onto the platen

bracket with the pre-installed hardware, as

shown in Figure 15.
