Standard Machinery Safety Instructions
For Your Own Safety,
Read Manual Before Operating 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 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 mea-
sures—this responsibility is ultimately up to the operator!
SAFETY
Standard Machinery Safety Instructions
-7-
Model W1854 (For Machines Mfd. Since 04/18)
SAFETY
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
avoid accidental slips, which could cause loss
of workpiece control.
HAZARDOUS
DUST. Dust created while using
machinery may cause cancer, birth defects,
or long-term respiratory damage. Be aware of
dust hazards associated with each workpiece
material, and always wear a NIOSH-approved
respirator to reduce your risk.
HEARING PROTECTION.
Always wear hearing
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!
INTENDED USAGE.
Only use machine for its
intended purpose—never make modifications
without prior approval from Woodstock
International. Modifying machine or using
it differently than intended will void the
warranty and may result in malfunction or
mechanical failure that leads to serious
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.
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 during
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
recommended accessories. Using improper
accessories will increase 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.

SAFETY
Additional Safety for Sanders
Serious injury or death can occur if fingers, clothing, jewelry, or hair get entangled in moving
components. Impact injuries can occur from kickback if workpiece is improperly fed into moving
sandpaper. Serious pinch injuries can occur from touching in-running nip point between table and
sanding surface. Long-term respiratory damage can occur from using sander without proper use
of a respirator. To reduce the risk of these hazards, operator and bystanders MUST completely
heed the hazards and warnings below.
SANDPAPER CONDITION. Worn or damaged sand-
paper can aggressively grab workpiece, result-
ing in subsequent injuries from operator loss
of workpiece control. Always inspect sandpa-
per before operation and replace if worn or
damaged.
WORKPIECE SUPPORT & HAND PLACEMENT.
Rotating sandpaper can remove a large
amount of flesh quickly, and kickback can
occur with violent force if workpiece is not
properly supported during operation. Always
sand with workpiece firmly against table or
another support device. Never touch moving
sandpaper on purpose.
IN-RUNNING NIP POINTS. The gap between mov-
ing 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
1
⁄
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,
causing 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 INSPECTION. Nails, staples, knots,
or other imperfections in workpiece can be
dislodged 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 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 sandpaper travel, ensure
workpiece is properly supported, and avoid
introducing sharp edges into moving sandpaper
on leading side of workpiece.
FEEDING WORKPIECE. Jamming workpiece into
sanding surface could cause it to be grabbed
aggressively, pulling hands into sanding sur-
face. Firmly grasp workpiece in both hands
and ease it into sandpaper using light pressure.
AVOIDING ENTANGLEMENT. Entanglment in mov-
ing parts can cause pinching and crushing inju-
ries. Keep all guards in place and closed. DO
NOT wear loose clothing, gloves, or jewelry,
and tie back long hair.
SANDING DUST. Sanding creates large amounts of
dust that can lead to eye injury or respiratory
illness. Reduce risk by wearing approved eye
and respiratory protection when using sander.
Never operate without adequate dust collec-
tion system in place and running. Dust collec-
tion is not a substitute for using a respirator.
WORKPIECE INTEGRITY. Sanding fragile work-
pieces 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 sur-
faces unless some type of jig is used to main-
tain support and control when sanding force is
applied.

ELECTRICAL
ELECTRICAL
Circuit Requirements
This machine must be connected to the correct size and
type of power supply circuit, or fire or electrical damage
may occur. Read through this section to determine if an
adequate power supply circuit is available. If a correct
circuit is not available, a qualified electrician MUST install
one before you can connect the machine to power.
A power supply circuit includes all electrical equipment
between the breaker box or fuse panel in the building
and the machine. The power supply 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.)
Circuit Requirements for 120V
This machine is prewired to operate on a power supply
circuit that has a verified ground and meets the following
requirements:
Circuit Type ............... 110V/120V, 60 Hz, Single-Phase
Circuit Size ............................................. 20 Amps
Plug/Receptacle .................................... NEMA 5-15
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 120V .............. 13.92 Amps
The machine must be properly set up
before it is safe to operate. DO NOT
connect this machine to the power
source until instrtucted to do so later
in this manual.
Incorrectly wiring or grounding this
machine can cause electrocution, fire,
or machine damage. To reduce this risk,
only an electrician or qualified service
personnel should do any required
electrical work on this machine.
NOTICE
The circuit requirements listed in this
manual apply to
a dedicated circuit—
where only one machine will be running
at a time. If this machine will be
connected to a shared circuit where
multiple machines will be running at the
same time, consult with an electrician
to ensure that the circuit is properly
sized for safe operation.
-10-
Model W1854 (For Machines Mfd. Since 04/18)
ELECTRICAL
Grounding Requirements
This machine MUST be grounded. In the event of certain
types of
malfunctions or breakdowns, grounding provides
a path of least resistance for electric current
to travel—in
order
to reduce the risk of electric shock.
Improper connection of the equipment-grounding
wire
will
increase
the risk of electric shock. The wire with green
insulation
(with/without yellow stripes) is the equipment-
grounding
wire. If repair or replacement of the power
cord or plug is necessary, do not connect the equipment-
grounding
wire to a live (current carrying) terminal.
Check with a qualified electrician or service personnel
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, disconnect it from power, and
immediately replace it with a new one.

DO NOT modify the provided plug or
use an adapter if the plug will not
fit the receptacle. Instead, have an
electrician install the proper receptacle
on a power supply circuit that meets
the requirements for this machine.
Extension Cords
We do not recommend using an extension cord with
this machine. Extension cords cause voltage drop, which
may damage electrical components and shorten motor
life. Voltage drop increases with longer extension cords
and smaller gauge sizes (higher gauge numbers indicate
smaller sizes).
Any extension cord used with this machine must contain a
ground wire, match the required
plug and receptacle, and
meet the following requirements:
Minimum Gauge Size at 120V ...................... 12 AWG
Maximum Length (Shorter is Better) ................50 ft.
For 120V Connection
This machine is equipped with a power cord with an
equipment-grounding
wire and NE M A 5-15 grounding
plug
(see figure). The plug must only be inserted into
a matching
receptacle that is properly installed and
grounded in accordance with local codes and ordinances.

SETUP
Machine Placement
Weight Load
Refer to the
Machine Specifications 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 workpiece 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 maintenance and
service described in this manual.
See below for
required space allocation.
Physical Environment
The physical environment where your machine is
operated is important for safe operation and the
longevity of its components. For best results,
operate this machine in a dry environment
that is free from excessive moisture, hazardous
chemicals, 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
access to a means of disconnecting the power
source or engaging a lockout/tagout device.
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.

SETUP
Assembly
Before beginning the assembly process, refer to Items
Needed for Setup
and gather everything you need.
Ensure all parts have been properly cleaned of any
heavy-duty rust-preventative applied at the factory (if
applicable). Be sure to complete all steps in the assembly
procedure prior to performing the Test Run.
To assemble machine, do these steps:
1. Move sander crate to an appropriate location, as
described in Machine Placement on previous page.
2. Mount a top and bottom long bracket to a stand
leg and secure by hand with (2) M8-1.25 x 15
carriage bolts and (2) M8-1.25 flange nuts, as shown
in Figure 4.
3. Secure a second leg to top and bottom long brackets
with (2) M8-1.25 x 15 carriage bolts and flange nuts,
as shown in Figure 5.
4. Repeat Steps 2-3 with remaining components to
build remaining stand leg assembly.
5. Mount top and bottom short brackets to stand leg
assembly with (2) M8-1.25 x 15 carriage bolts and
(2) M8-1.25 flange nuts, as shown in Figure 6.
Do not final-tighten stand bolts until all stand
components have been assembled. It will help with
aligning and leveling stand later in assembly steps.

Note: We recommend assembling the stand upside down.
To make it easier, have an assistant hold the pieces while
you assemble the stand.
6. Assemble remaining stand components, as shown in
Figure 7, with remaining hardware.

7. Turn stand upright and adjust it so legs are evenly
positioned, then tighten all stand fasteners.
8. Make sure sander is still resting on shipping pallet.
9. Place pallet and stand near appropriate location
(once sander is mounted to stand it will be difficult
to move).
10. With help of an assistant, tilt sander back so side
with belt access panel faces pallet. Move left bottom
edge of sander forward, as shown in Figure 8.
Note: The base should be even with or stick out
from the edge of the pallet to properly install stand
assembly.
12. Secure stand to sander with (4) M8-1.25 x 20 hex
bolts, (8) 8mm flat washers, and (4) M8-1.25 hex
nuts, as shown in Figure 10.
13. Lift up on stand and remove blocks.
11. Lay stand assembly on blocks, as shown in
Figure 9.
Tip: Place two stacks of blocks the same height as
the pallet and about 15 inches apart on the floor
near the sander base, and lay the stand assembly on
the blocks, as shown in Figure 9.
