Surface Finishing on the Abrasive Belt
Flat surfaces
Hold the workpiece firmly with both hands, keepir_g fin-
gers away from the abrasive belt.
Keep the end butted against the backstop and move the
work evenly across the abrasive bell Use extra caution
when finishing very thin pieces.
For finishing long pieces, remove the backstop.
Apply only enough pressure to allow the abrasive belt to
remove material. If the abrasive belt stalls and the belt
pulleys slip, too, much pressure is being applied to the
workpiece

End Finishing on the Abrasive Belt
It is more convenient to finish the ends of long work-
pieces with the abrasive belt in a vertical position.
Move the work evenly across the abrasive belt. For accu-
racy, use a miter gauge.
The table may be tilted for beveled work.
See "Getting to Know Your Belt and Disc Sander" section
for adjusting the abrasive belt table and work table.
