The Model G1183/G1276 sander ships with a pre- installed 80-grit, 12" diameter adhesive-backed sanding disc.

The sanding disc sticks to the surface of the cast iron disc platen, using the pressure-sensitive adhesive (PSA) backing. The sandpaper can be replaced without removing the table or dust port.

To replace the disc sandpaper:

1.DISCONNECT SANDER FROM POWER!

2.Peel off the old sandpaper, clean the disc surface with mineral spirits, then wipe it dry.

3.Peel back the protective layer on one-halfof the sandpaper disc and fold it against the remaining half.

4.Slip the half with the protective layer between the disc and the table edge (see Figure 31 for an example).

Figure 31. Example photo of installing the

sandpaper disc.

5.Position the exposed adhesive on the upper half of the aluminum disc that extends above the table. Once it is positioned evenly across the disc, press the adhesive onto the sur- face.

6.Rotate the disc so the lower half is above the table. Peel off the other half of the protective paper, then press the remaining sandpaper against the disc so adhesion is complete.

Model G1183/G1276 (Mfg. Since 3/10)

Only sand on the downward-moving left side of the sanding disc. Sanding on the upward- moving right side of the sanding disc forces the operator to rely only on hands (rather than the table) for support, which increases the risk of workpiece "kick-out" and impact/ abrasion injuries.

Refer to Figures 32–35for examples of sand- ing operations that are possible with the sanding disc.
