Global Machinery Company BS900M instruction manual Sanding, Using the sanding frame

Page 9

Use Coarse grade to remove rough finishes, Medium grade to smooth the work and Fine grade to finish it off. It is best to make a trial run on a scrap piece of material to determine the optimum grades of belt for a particular job.

In order to take full advantage of your sander, always purchase good quality belts.

Note. After sanding with a belt sander, an orbital sander should be used to give a better surface finish.

Sanding

1.The sander is designed for sanding wood, metal, plastic and similar materials. It is used mainly for quickly removing a large amount of material. Do not use this sander for sanding magnesium.

2.

Ensure that the belt is in

I

 

good condition.

 

3.

Plug in the tool to the

 

 

power socket.

 

4.

Bring down the sander onto

 

 

the work piece and apply

 

 

light pressure (fig.I).

 

 

5.

Pull up the trigger switch (5)

 

J

 

and allow the belt to reach

 

full speed before moving it

 

 

across the work (fig.J).

 

6.

Press the lock-on button (4) if

 

 

you require continuous operation.

 

7.

Sand with the grain, in parallel

 

 

overlapping strokes.

 

8.

To remove paint or smooth

 

K

 

very rough wood, sand

 

 

 

across the grain at 45º in two

 

 

directions, and then finish

 

 

parallel with the grain.

 

9.Use the front roller (8) only to sand corners or irregular shapes (fig.K).

10.Lift the sander off the work before switching off.

11.Remember to keep your hands away from the moving belt, as it will continue to move for a short time after the machine is switched off.

12.Wear safety goggles, a dust mask and earmuffs.

Using the sanding frame

 

L

Belt sanders are ideal for

 

removing lots of material quickly.

 

The sanding frame allows other

 

functions, namely:

 

•Controlling the depth of sanding

•Preventing the gouging of a workpiece

•Fine finishing with the use of a fine grit belt and the frame height adjusted for a minimal depth of sanding

To fit the sanding frame:

1.Remove the dust extraction canister.

2.Turn the sander upside down with the cordset facing you.

3.Screw the knob on the frame all the way in.

4.Fit the frame over the base of the sander taking care that the spigot on the end of the frame knob locates into the T-shaped groove in the body of the sander and the four tabs on the inside of the frame locate in the corresponding recesses in the sides of the sander.

5.Screwing the frame knob in or out causes the four tabs to slide along the inclined slots on the sides of the sander and adjusts the height of the frame relative to the sanding belt.

6.Refit the dust canister.
