Due to the generic nature of this overview, it is
not intended to be an instructional guide. To learn
more about specific operations, read this entire
manual, seek additional training from experienced
machine operators, and do additional research
outside of this manual by reading "how-to" books,

To complete a typical sanding operation, the
operator does the following:
1.
Examines workpiece to make sure it is suit-
able for sanding.
2. Adjusts table tilt if necessary and locks table
in place.
3. If necessary, inserts miter gauge in miter
slot, adjusts miter gauge to required sanding
angle, and locks it in place.
4. Puts on safety glasses and a respirator.
5. Starts dust collector and then machine.
6. Holds workpiece firmly and flatly against
both table and miter gauge (if used), pushes
workpiece into or along side of sanding
belt, and moves it to different locations to
wear sandpaper evenly and prevent it from
overheating.
7.
Stops machine.
