Press the start switch (A, Figure 19) to activate the sanding belt.

Operation

Your oscillating belt Edge Sander is designed and manufactured for long-term operation creating superior sanded surfaces for wood products. The oscillation of the belt helps prevent sanding marks in the workpiece, and allows longer belt wear.

Before operating the Edge Sander, make sure all locking handles and knobs are tight on guards and tables.

Always use the miter gauge, when possible, to support your workpiece.

This machine is suited for sanding wood products only. Do not use this machine for sanding metal products.
