Attaching Sandpaper

The Model G0547 Combo Sander accepts 6" diameter cloth or paper-backed pressure sensi- tive adhesive (PSA) sanding discs. These are available in a variety of grits. See the current Grizzly catalog for prices and ordering informa- tion.

The PSA sanding disc sticks directly to the sur- face of the aluminum disc and can be replaced without removing either the table or the dust port.

To attach sandpaper:

1.Disconnect the machine from the power source!

2.Remove the disc table and the lower guard.

3.Remove the worn out sandpaper.

Note—Make sure that all dust, grit, and adhesive from the old sandpaper is cleaned off the aluminum disc. This will ensure a good bond between the sandpaper and the disc.

4.Peel back the protective layer on one-half of the sandpaper disc and fold it against the remaining half.

5.Center the sticky half of the sandpaper on the upper half of the disc and press the sand- paper onto the surface (Figure 8).
