Bolting Oscilla ting Edge Belt/

Spindle Sander To Workbench

If sander is to be used in a permanent
location, it should be fastened securely to
a firm supporting surface such as a work-
bench, with either bolts or drywall screws.
Fastening with bolts
1.Use 1/4" bolts, washers, and nuts (not
included). The bolt length should be
1-1/2" plus the thicknes s of the work-
bench.
2.Locate and mark the holes where the
sander is to be mounted.
3.Drill (4) 3/8" diameter holes through
workbench.
4.Place sander on workbench, aligning
holes in base with holes drilled in work-
bench.
5.Insert (4) 1/4" diameter bolts and wash-
ers and attach nuts securely.
Fastening with screws
Drive (4) 2-1/2" long screws through the
holes in the base and through the work-
bench. Do not overtighten the screws.

CAUTION: To reduce the risk of

injury from tool movement, use

either 1/4" diameter screws and

nuts or 2-1/2" long screws.

Clamping Oscillating Edge Belt/Spin-
dle Sander To Workbench
An alternative method of mounting is to
fasten the sander to a mounting board.
The board should be sufficient size to
avoid tipping while in use. Any good
grade of plywood or chipboard with a 3/4"
thickness is recommended. (Thinner chip-
board can break.)
NOTE: For proper stability, holes must be
countersunk so screw heads are flush
with the surface of supporting board.
