SANDING BELT BED POSTIONS
Refer to Figure 18 and 19
The sanding bed can be adjusted to any horizontal or
vertical position. For more informations refer to Belt
Sanding- Horizontal or Vertical Sanding under
Operation.
DUST PORT OPTIONS
Refer to Figure 6
The dust port can be easily connected to a dust collection
system with a large diameter shop vacuum hose.
Sanding operations are inherently dusty. This sander is
equipped with a 2-1/4" dust chute to help minimize the
amount of dust escaping into the surrounding air. Attach
the dust collection system vaccum hose to the dust chute.
NOTE: The use of a dust collection system is strongly
recommended when using the belt/disc sander. Use of a
mask or respirator is still recommended even when using
a dust collection system.
