Align the keyway in the disc hub with the key on the motor shaft (see Figure 22). Install the disc plate on the shaft. Position the disc so the face of the disc is even with the edge of the upper disc guard. Tighten the setscrew in the hub of the disc plate.

If necessary, adjust the position of the upper disc guard. Loosen the screws and adjust the position of the upper disc guard.

Replace the lower disc guard and the sanding disc table.

A miter gage (see Figure 23) is supplied with the sander. The

miter gauge can be set anywhere up to 45 degrees right or left.

gauge to the desired angle and retightening the knob.

If the motor belt becomes loose, the belt can be tightened by
loosening the motor hold down nuts (see Figure 24). Slide to the
rear of the sander to tighten the belt. Hold the motor in position
and tighten the four motor hold down nuts.
