ADJUSTMENTS

Main Table Tilt

Often you may have to tilt the main table to accommodate for the angles of your workpiece. The main table is equipped with a degree scale which indicates the angle that the the work- piece will be sanded at.

Tilting the table increas- es the gap between the table edge and the sand- ing belt. The gap should NOT exceed 14".

DO NOT loosen both table height lock levers at the same time without holding the main table in position. The table can quickly tilt and cause injury. See Figure 37.

To adjust the main table angle, do these steps:

1.With one hand, hold the main table, and with the other hand loosen the main table tilt lock levers. See Figure 38.

2.Tilt the main table to the desired angle using the angle scale. See Figure 39.

3.Tighten the main table tilt lock levers.

NOTICE

Tilting the table enlarges the gap between the table edge and the sanding belt. This gap cannot exceed 14". If it does, refer to the Main Table procedure of the Assembly sec- tion for detailed instructions on moving the table closer to the sanding belt if you need additional information.

4.Loosen the two table-to-trunnion 516"-18 X 1" hex bolts.

5.Slide the main table toward the platen so the table-to-platen gap is no more than 14" at both ends of the platen.

6.Tighten the two table-to-trunnion hex bolts.
