Basic Operations
Removing the belt guard exposes more of the sanding belt! Replace the belt guards immediately after completing any sanding that requires its removal! Failure to comply may cause serious injury!
Horizontal Sanding
For horizontal sanding, the platen is locked in the horizontal position as shown (F) and the removable fence (D) is secured to the table (E) as follows.
Referring to Figure 16:
1.Place 5/16 flat washers (not shown) and guide blocks (B) on two 12mm lock knobs (A) – Note: the 12mm refers to the threaded shaft length.
2.Insert the guide blocks (B) into the miter slot
(C)and position the lock knobs (G) on the table (E) as shown.
3.Place the removable fence (D) on the table and secure by tightening the lock knobs (G, Fig. 16 and Figure 17).
The backstop (H, Fig. 17) can also be used by swiveling the drum guard & dust port (J, Fig. 17) out of the way and placing the backstop pin in the positioning hole and securing in place with the lock knob (K, Fig. 17) and 5/16" flat washer. Note: This is better shown in Figure 18. The drum guard & dust port (J, Fig. 17) can then be returned to the position shown.
Vertical Sanding
Referring to Figure 18:
For vertical sanding, the platen (G) is locked in the vertical position as shown and the backstop (H) and/or the miter gauge (B) may be used.
Miter Gauge
1.Slide the guide bar (D) of the miter gauge (A) into the miter slot (C) on the table.
2.Set the miter angle; then secure the miter by tightening the lock handle (B).
Backstop
