Once assembly is complete and adjustments are done to your satisfaction, you are ready to test the machine.
Turn on the power supply at the main panel. Press the START button. Make sure that your fin- ger is poised on the STOP button, just in case there’s a problem. The sander should run smoothly, with little or no vibration or rubbing noises. Strange or unnatural noises should be investigated and corrected before operating the machine further.
WARNING: DO NOT attempt to investigate or adjust the machine while it is running. Wait until the machine is turned off, unplugged and all working parts have come to a rest before you do anything!
If noises occur that cannot be found by visual inspection, feel free to contact our service depart- ment for help.
1.Turn the sander on and allow the belt to reach full speed.
2.Place the workpiece flat on the belt. Be sure to hold the work securely with both hands. Place one hand at the end of the workpiece to feed it against the rotation of the belt, and one hand lightly on top of the piece to ensure adequate stock removal. Figure 11.
3.Depending on the length of the workpiece, use the back stop to prevent it from being ejected by the belt. If your workpiece is too long, simply remove the back stop.
Figure 11.
