 WARNING
1. Read and understand the entire owner’s manual before attempting assembly or operation.
2. This buffer/sander 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 a buffer/sander,
do not use until proper training and knowledge have been obtained.
3. Always wear approved safety glasses/face shields while using this machine.
4. Make certain the machine is properly grounded.
5. Before operating the machine, remove tie, rings, watches, other jewelry, and roll up sleeves above
the elbows. Remove all loose clothing and confine long hair. Do not wear gloves.
6. Keep the floor around the machine clean and free of scrap material, oil and grease.
7. Keep machine 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.
8. Do not over reach. Maintain a balanced stance at all times so that you do not fall or lean against
blades or other moving parts.
9. Make all machine adjustments or maintenance with the machine unplugged from the power source.
10. Use the right tool. Don't force a tool or attachment to do a job that it was not designed for.
11. Replace warning labels if they become obscured or removed.
12. Make certain the switch is in the OFF position before connecting the machine to the power supply.
13. Give your work undivided attention. Looking around, carrying on a conversation, and "horse-play" are
careless acts that can result in serious injury.
14. Keep visitors a safe distance from the work area.
15. Use recommended accessories; improper accessories may be hazardous.
16. Read and understand warnings posted on the machine and in this manual.
17. Failure to comply with all of these warnings may cause serious injury.
18. Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling and other construction activities
contains chemicals known to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. Some
examples of these chemicals are:
• Lead from lead based paint
• crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other masonry products, and
• arsenic and chromium from chemically-treated lumber.
19. Your risk from those exposures varies, depending on how often you do this type of work. To reduce
your exposure to these chemicals: work in a well ventilated area, and work with approved safety
equipment, such as those dust masks that are specifically designed to filter out microscopic particles
20. Do not operate tool while under the influence of drugs, alcohol or any medication.
21. Provide for adequate surrounding work space and overhead non-glare lighting.
22. Use only JET factory authorized replacement parts and accessories; otherwise the warranty and
guarantee are null and void.
23. Do not use this JET buffer/sander 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.
24. Make sure buffer/sander is secured firmly to a bench or stand before use.
25. Do not use grinding wheels on this machine. It is strictly designed for buffing and sanding only.
26. Do not allow your hands to come into contact with sanding drums or buffing wheels during operation.
27. Never buff or sand by placing the workpiece on top of the wheel. The wheel may kick the workpiece
toward the operator. Always buff on the downward part of the wheel.

Grounding Instructions
Caution: This tool must be grounded while in use to protect the operator from electric shock.
In the event of a malfunction or breakdown, grounding provides a path of least resistance for electric
current to reduce the risk of electric shock. This tool is equipped with an electric cord having an
equipment-grounding conductor and a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into a matching outlet
that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
Do not modify the plug provided. If it will not fit the outlet, have the proper outlet installed by a qualified
electrician.
Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in a risk of electric shock. The
conductor, with insulation having an outer surface that is green with or without yellow stripes, is the
equipment-grounding conductor. If repair or replacement of the electric cord or plug is necessary, do not
connect the equipment-grounding conductor to a live terminal.
Check with a qualified electrician or service personnel if the grounding instructions are not completely
understood, or if in doubt as to whether the tool is properly grounded. Use only three wire extension
cords that have three-prong grounding plugs and three-pole receptacles that accept the tool’s plug.
Repair or replace a damaged or worn cord immediately.
115 Volt Operation
As received from the factory, your buffer/sander is ready to run at 115 volt operation. This buffer/sander,
when wired for 115 volt, is intended for use on a circuit that has an outlet and a plug that looks like the
one illustrated in (A). A temporary adapter, which looks like the adapter as illustrated in (B), may be used
to connect this plug to a two-pole receptacle, as shown in (B) if a properly grounded outlet is not
available. The temporary adapter should only be used until a properly grounded outlet can be installed
by a qualified electrician. This adapter is not applicable in Canada. The green colored rigid ear, lug,
or tab, extending from the adapter, must be connected to a permanent ground such as a properly
grounded outlet box, as shown in (B).
