3. If required, adjust the pointer to the zero mark, and retighten the screw. Replacing Abrasive Disc The DS20 takes standard 20” diameter cloth or paper-back sanding discs.

Operation Raise the table into position, as shown in Figure 10. After turning on the sander, allow the disc to come up to full speed before beginning to sand. Slide the miter gauge into the table slot. The miter gauge can be used from either direction to facilitate the position of the workpiece. -

Page 13: Troubleshooting
Replace fuse, or reset circuit breaker. Replace cord. Use adequate size extension cord. Verify that sander is on a circuit of correct size. If circuit size is correct, there is probably a loose electrical lead. Go through all the electrical connections on the edge sander including motor connections, verifying the tightness of each. -
