Quick Release Lever

Your Model W1688 Edge Sander is equipped with the quick release lever that allows you to release the tension on the belt for quick belt changing.

To install the quick release lever, do these steps:

1.Loosen the belt tracking lock knob. See

Figure 16.

2.Slide the quick release lever through the platen cover lever slot. See Figure 16.

3.Thread the 12" jam nut onto the quick release lever until the nut bottoms at the end of the lever threads and thread the lever into the swivel assembly until the lever bottoms. If required have an assistant push the idler roller inward to line up the swivel assembly with the threaded lever. See Figure 17.

4.Tighten the jam nut and the belt tracking lock knob. See Figure 17.

Miter Gauge

The miter gauge is used when sanding the ends of workpieces at least 8" long at various angles.

The miter gauge is not a back stop!

To install the miter gauge, do these steps:

1.Locate the miter gauge pivot hole and the threaded lock-knob hole in the main table. See Figure 18.

NOTICE

The miter gauge pivot pin pivots from one main table location only. Any other hole in the table is not used for the miter gauge.

2.Insert the miter gauge pivot pin located at the underside of the miter gauge into the pivot hole located at the top of the main table.

3.Secure the miter gauge to the table using the miter lock knob as shown in Figure 19.
