MOUNTING THE SANDER TO A WORK
SURFACE
See Figures 6 and 7.
Follow these directions to mount the sander to a work surface.
■Place the sander on a sturdy work surface, e.g.,
work stand, workbench, counter top.
■ Mark the holes in the sander base with a pencil.
■Remove the sander from the work surface.
■Drill three holes through the work surface.
■Place the sander back on the work surface, aligning the holes in the base with the holes in the work surface.
NOTE: If the sander does not appear to be stable, make sure the rubber stabilizers are intact on the sander bottom.
■ Insert three bolts (not included, 1/4 in. (6.4 mm) machine bolts recommended) and tighten securely with lock washers and hex nuts (not included).
■ Check the work surface carefully after you mount the sander to make sure that no movement can occur during use. If you notice any tipping, sliding, or walking, secure the work surface to the floor before operating the tool.
NOTE: If you plan to transport the sander to different locations, we recommend that you attach it permanently to a mounting board that you can easily clamp to a work surface.
