OPERATE SANDING BELT

• Always wear protective eye wear.
• Keep fingers away from abrasive surface and any
moving parts.
• Use Table and Work Stop to securely position the
workpiece during operation.
• Move workpiece across sanding belt evenly to minimize
uneven wear of abrasive surface.
• Do not apply excessive force against the sanding belt.
Allow sanding belt to sand away workpiece by applying
gentle and consistent pressure.
• Use horizontal belt position with Work Stop to sand the
sides of long workpiece.
• Use vertical belt position or Sanding Disc with Table to
sand the ends of long workpiece.
• Use caution when sanding small or thin workpiece.
• Use flat portion of abrasive surface to sand convex
object. Use Idler Drum portion of abrasive surface to
sand concave object.
• For Precise sanding, use Mitre Gauge.
• For beveled sanding, tilt the table to a desired angle.
• During sanding, position the workpiece securely against
k
work stop or against table platform.

OPERATE SANDING DISC

• Always wear protective eye wear.
• Keep fingers away from abrasive surface and any
j
moving parts.
• Use Table to securely position the workpiece during

operation.
• Use Sanding Disc for small object only.
• Use sanding disc to sand flat or convex surface.
• Use only the "Down Side" of the disc surface. This is
the area of the disc surface where the moving disc going
i
downward. It is to the left of the operator.
• Move workpiece across sanding Disc "Down Side"
evenly to minimize uneven wear of abrasive surface.
• The Sanding disc moves faster at outer edge and will
remove working material faster.
• For Precise sanding, use Mitre Gauge.
• For beveled sanding, tilt the table to the desired angle.
SET UP THE MITRE GAUGE
Refer to Figure 12
• Use Mitre Gauge (a) to securely hold the workpiece at a
precise angle for sanding.
• Position the Mitre gauge (a) onto the groove on the
p
table platform.
• Calibrate with a combination square (d) so the Mitre
gauge (a) is perpendicular to the abrasive surface.
m
Tighten the Knob (c). Set the pointer (b) to ZERO.
• Loose the Knob (c) and turn the Mitre Gauge (a) to
desired angle. Tighten the Knob (c) to secure the Mitre
Gauge (a) in place.
