SECTION 4: OpERATIONS
Operation Overview
The purpose of this overview is to provide the nov-
ice machine operator with a basic understanding
of how the machine is used during operation, so
the machine controls/components discussed later
in this manual are easier to understand.
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 and seek additional training from expe-
rienced machine operators, and do additional
research outside of this manual by reading "how-
to" books, trade magazines, or websites.
To complete a typical operation, the operator
does the following:
1. examines the workpiece to make sure it is
suitable for sanding.
2. adjusts the table tilt, if necessary, to the cor-
rect angle for the operation.
3. makes sure the sandpaper is in good condi-
tion and properly mounted.
4. puts on safety glasses and a respirator, and
turns the dust collection system ON.
5. starts the sander.
6. makes sure the sanding belt is tracking prop-
erly.
7. Feeds the workpiece slowly into the sand-
paper while maintaining firm pressure on the
workpiece against the table or miter gauge.
Keeps hands and fingers away from the mov-
ing sandpaper.
8. stops the machine.
