END SANDING WITH THE BELT

When sanding the ends of wide workpieces, use the sanding belt with the sanding arm in the vertical position and the table assembly moved to the sanding belt (Fig. 43). See the sections “CHANGING POSITION OF SANDING ARM” and “USING TABLE ASSEMBLY WITH SANDING BELT”.

For more accurate work, use the supplied miter gauge to move the work evenly across the sanding belt (Fig. 43).

To avoid trapping the work or fingers between the backstop and the sanding belt, the edge of the table should be positioned a maximum of 1/16" away from the sanding belt .

END SANDING WITH THE DISC

When sanding the ends of narrow workpieces, use the sanding disc and the miter gauge (Fig. 44). Move the work from the center to the left side of the sanding disc.

Always sand on the left (downward) side of the sanding disc (Fig. 44). Sanding on the right (upward) side of the sanding disc could cause the workpiece to fly up suddenly which could be hazardous.

To avoid trapping the work or fingers between the backstop and the abrasive, the edge of the table should be positioned a maximum of 1/16" away from the abrasive .
