SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Metal working can be dangerous if safe and proper operating procedures are not followed. As
with all machinery, there are certain hazards involved with the operation of the product. Using
the machine with respect and caution will considerably lessen the possibility of personal injury.
However, if normal safety precautions are overlooked or ignored, personal injury to the operator
may result.
Safety equipment such as guards, hold-downs, safety glasses, dust masks and hearing
protection can reduce your potential for injury. But even the best guard won’t make up for poor
judgment, carelessness or inattention. Always use common sense and exercise caution in
the workshop. If a procedure feels dangerous, don’t try it.
REMEMBER: Your personal safety is your responsibility.
1. Only trained and qualified personnel can operate this machine.
2. Make sure guards are in place and in proper working order before operating
machinery.
3. Remove any adjusting tools. Before operating the machine, make sure any adjusting tools
have been removed.
4. Keep work area clean. Cluttered areas invite injuries.
5. Overloading machine. By overloading the machine you may cause injury from flying parts.
DO NOT exceed the specified machine capacities.
6. Dressing material edges. Always chamfer and deburr all sharp edges.
7. Do not force tool. Your machine will do a better and safer job if used as intended. DO NOT
use inappropriate attachments in an attempt to exceed the machines rated capacity.
8. Use the right tool for the job. DO NOT attempt to force a small tool or attachment to do the
work of a large industrial tool. DO NOT use a tool for a purpose for which it was not
intended.
9. Dress appropriate. DO NOT wear loose fitting clothing or jewelry as they can be caught in
moving machine parts. Protective clothing and steel toe shoes are recommended when
using machinery. Wear a restrictive hair covering to contain long hair.

UNPACKING AND CHECKING CONTENTS
Your Baileigh machine is shipped complete in one crate. Separate all parts from the packing
material and check each item carefully. Make certain all items are accounted for before
discarding any packing material.
Cleaning
Your machine may be shipped with a rustproof waxy oil coating and grease on the exposed
unpainted metal surfaces. To remove this protective coating, use a degreaser or solvent
cleaner. For a more thorough cleaning, some parts will occasionally have to be removed. DO
NOT USE acetone or brake cleaner as they may damage painted surfaces.
Follow manufacturer’s label instructions when using any type of cleaning product. After cleaning,
wipe unpainted metal surfaces with a light coating of quality oil or grease for protection.
WARNING:
SUFFOCATION HAZARD! Immediately discard any plastic
bags and packing materials to eliminate choking and suffocation hazards to children
and animals.
If any parts are missing, do not plug in the power cable, or turn the power switch on
until the missing parts are obtained and installed correctly.
WARNING: DO NOT USE gasoline or other petroleum products to clean
the machine. They have low flash points and can explode or cause fire.
CAUTION: When using cleaning solvents work in a well-ventilated area.
Many cleaning solvents are toxic if inhaled.
