END SANDING WITH THE DISC
When sanding the ends of narrow workpieces, use the sanding disc and an accessory miter gauge (A) Fig. 48. Move the work from the center to the left side (downward) of the sanding disc.
ALWAYS SAND ON THE LEFT SIDE (DOWNWARD ROTATION SIDE) OF THE SANDING DISC. SANDING ON THE RIGHT SIDE (UPWARD ROTATION SIDE) OF THE SANDING DISC COULD CAUSE THE WORKPIECE TO FLY UP, WHICH COULD BE HAZARDOUS.
THE EDGE OF THE TABLE (C) FIG. 48 MUST BE POSITIONED A MAXIMUM OF 1/16" AWAY FROM THE SANDING DISC (B) TO AVOID TRAPPING THE WORK OR FINGERS BETWEEN THE TABLE AND THE SANDING DISC.
END SANDING WIDE WORKPIECES WITH THE BELT
When sanding the ends of wide workpieces, use the sanding arm in the vertical position (Fig. 49).
For more accurate work use an accessory miter gauge and move the work evenly across the sanding belt (Fig. 49).
