BOLTING OSCILLATING EDGE
BELT/SPINDLE SANDER TO
WORKBENCH
If sander is to be used in a permanent location, it should
be fastened securely to a firm supporting surface such as a
workbench, with either bolts or deck screws. See Figure 6.
Fastening with bolts
1.
Use 1/4 inch bolts, washers, and nuts (not included).
The bolt length should be 2 inch plus the thickness of
the workbench.
2.
Locate and mark the holes where the sander is to be
mounted.
3.
Drill (4) 3/8 inch diameter holes through workbench.
4.
Place sander on workbench, aligning holes in base with
holes drilled in workbench.
5.
Insert (4) 1/4 inch diameter bolts and washers and
attach nuts securely.
Fastening with screws
Drive (4) 2 1/2 inch long screws through the holes in the base
and through the workbench. Do not overtighten the screws.
To reduce the risk of injury from tool movement,
use either 1/4 inch diameter screws and nuts or 2 1/2 inch long
deck screws.
CLAMPING OSCILLATING EDGE
BELT/SPINDLE SANDER TO
WORKBENCH
An alternative method of mounting is to fasten the sander to a
mounting board. The board should be sufficient size to avoid tipping
while in use. Any good grade of plywood or chipboard with a 3/4
inch thickness is recommended. (Thinner chipboard can break.)
NOTE: For proper stability, holes must be countersunk so screw
heads are flush with the bottom surface of supporting board.
See Figure 7.
