WARNING: Do not permit fingers to touch the terminals of
p]ug when installing or removing from outlet.
• Plug must be plugged into matching outlet that is properly
installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes
and ordinances. Do not modify plug provided, if it will not fit
in oufieL have proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.
• inspect tool cords periodically, and if damaged, have
repaired by an authorized service facility.
• Green (or green and yellow) conductor in cord is the
grounding wire. If repair or replacement of the electric cord
or plug is necessary, do not connect the green (or green
and yellow) wire to a live terminal
• Where a 2-prong wall receptacle is encountered, it must be
replaced with a propedy grounded 3-prong receptacle
installed in accordance with National Electdc Code and
local codes and ordinances.
WARNING: This work should be performed by a qualified
electrician,
A temporary 3-prong to 2-prong grounding adapter (see
Figure 8) is available for connecting plugs to a two pole outlet
if it is propedy grounded.

Do not use a 3-prong to 2-prong grounding adapter unless
permitted by local and national codes and ordinances.
(A g-prong to 2-prong grounding adapter is not permitted in
Canada.) Where permitted, the rigid green tab or terminal on
the side of the adapter must be securely connected to a
permanent electrical ground such as a properly grounded
water pipe, a properly grounded out_etbox or a properly
grounded wire system.
• Many cover plate screws, water pipes and outlet boxes are
not properly grounded. To ensure proper ground, grounding
means must be tested by a qualified electrician.
EXTENSION CORDS
• The use of any extension cord will cause some drop in
voltage and Joss of power.
• Wires of the extension cord must be of sufficientsize to
carry the current and maintain adequate voltage.
• Use the table to determine the minimum wire size (A.W.G.)
extension cord.
• Use only 3-wire extension cords having 3-prong grounding
type plugs and 3-pole receptacles which accept the tool
plug.
• If the extension cord is worn, cut, or damaged in any way,
replace it immediately.

ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
WARNING: All electrical connections must be performed by
a qualified electrician. Make sure tool is off and disconnected
from power source while motor is mounted, connected, recon-
nected or anytime wiring is inspected.
Motor and wires are installed as shown in wiring schematic
(See Figure 9). Motor is assembled with approved,
3-conductor cord to be used at 120 volts.
Switch
Figure 9 - Wiring Schematic-
The power lines are inserted directly onto the switch. The
green ground line must remain securely fastened to the frame
to properly protect against electrical shock. The power supply
to the motor is controlled by a single pole locking rocker switch.
• Remove the key to prevent unauthorized use.
Refer to Figures 10- 17.
DESCRIPTION
The Craftsman Belt and Disc Sander is constructed of rugged
die cast aluminum and cast iron providing stabilityand vibra-
tion-free operation. The belt and disc are used to sand,
deburr, beval and grind large workpieces of wood and plastic.
The belt housing can be pivoted from vertical to
horizontal for sanding large, straight workpiecas. The idler
drum permits the sanding of contoured shapes and finishes.
The disc can be used to sand or bevel surfaces.
Sander has a 2" dust port that collects dust from both belt and
disc
The ad ustable miter gauge is used on the work table for guid-
ing the workpiece at a desired angle while sanding. Work stop
included for sanding long pieces on the belt.
