ACCESSORY MITER GAUGE

The majority of work performed on the disc sander is usually accomplished using the table as a support as shown in Fig. 20, but a 3/8" x 3/4" slot (A) Fig. 22, is machined into the table of the sander to facilitate miter gauge applications as shown in Fig. 23. The use of a miter gauge will provide accurate straight and angled end-sanding as shown. Miter gauge (B) Fig. 23, is available at your nearest Delta Distributor (Cat. No. 34- 779).
