The sanding motor body must be mounted to the stand before the machine can be used. Remove the stand and sanding unit from the packaging. If you will be using a mobile base to allow moving the disc sander around, now is a good time to place the stand on a properly adjusted mobile base. This will eliminate the need to lift the com- bined machine and stand unit later on.
Lift the sanding unit and place it on top of the stand so that the ON/OFF switch is on the same side of the machine as the door of the cabinet. Use an assistant to lift the unit and to aid in get- ting the holes aligned. Use four (4) hex bolts, nuts and washers to secure the unit to the stand.
The two disc tables must be mounted to the sand- ing unit’s table tile trunnions. Loosen the star knob and move the two trunnions until they are approximately perpendicular to the face of the disc. Position the table over the four threaded holes, and install four (4) socket head cap screws. Repeat this procedure for the other disc table.
