Gauge Blocks

The gauge blocks described here will be required to com- plete most of the service procedures in this section. After you have made them, they can be conveniently stored inside of the sander cabinet for future use.

To make the gauge blocks, do these steps:

1.Edge joint the concave edge of a 7' long 2x4 flat on a jointer, as shown in Figure 37.

2.Place the jointed edge of the 2x4 against the table saw fence and rip cut just enough off the oppo- site side to square up the two edges of the 2x4, as shown in Figure 38.

3.Using a miter saw or circular saw, cut 6" off each end of the board to remove any portions with slight snipe from jointing. Then cut the 2x4 into two even pieces to make two 36" long wood gauge blocks.

Note: Save one of the 6" pieces for making a small gauge block in Drum Adjustments on Page 38.

Steps 1 & 2 above can be skipped, but having these wood gauge blocks at an even height is critical to the accuracy of your overall adjustments.

MAKE SURE that your machine is unplugged during all service procedures! If this warning is ignored, serious personal injury may occur.
