General

MAKE SURE that your machine is

unplugged during all service proce-

dures! If this warning is ignored, seri-

ous personal injury may occur.

In order to maintain accuracy and precision with the oscil-
lating edge sander, periodically calibrate the angle gauge.

To calibrate the angle gauge, do these steps:

1. Loosen the angle adjustment lock handle.

2. Place the machinist's square on the table and press

it against the platen.

3. Adjust the platen until it is flush with the

machinist's square as in

Figure 37.

4. Tighten the angle adjustment lock handle.

5. Loosen the angle indicator pin screw, shown in

Figure 38, a 1/2 turn.

6. Align the angle indicator pin with the 90˚ mark and

tighten the angle indicator pin screw.
