BEVEL SANDING

See Figure 14.

The worktable can be tilted from 0

° to 45° for bevel sanding.

To tilt the worktable:
■ Loosen the table lock knob by turning it counterclockwise.
■ Set worktable to desired angle.

Note: Position the worktable not further than 1/16 in.
(1.6 mm) from the sanding surface.

■ Tighten the table lock knob by turning it clockwise.

SANDING SMALL END SURFACES USING THE
MITER GAUGE

See Figure 15.

A miter gauge is included with your tool for increased
accuracy. Use of a miter gauge is recommended for sanding
small end surfaces on the sanding disc.

Note: Always move the workpiece across the sanding disc
from the left side towards the right side.

HORIZONTAL AND VERTICAL SANDING

See Figure 16.

Your belt/disc sander can sand both vertically and
horizontally. Depending on the workpiece, the work support
can be used with either the horizontal or vertical sanding
operation.
■ Insert the hex key provided into the holes in the pulley

cover. Loosen the screws by turning them counter-
clockwise.

■ Move the sanding belt into a vertical position as shown

in Figure 16. Vertical position can be changed using the
vertical set screw.

■ Lock the sanding belt by retightening the screws.

Note: Sand long workpieces with the sanding belt in the
vertical position by moving the work evenly across the
sanding belt.
