Attaching Sandpaper

OPERATIONS

The Model W1815 sander accepts 15" diameter adhesive- backed sanding discs. These are available in a variety of grits.

The sanding disc sticks to the surface of the cast iron disc platen, using the pressure-sensitive adhesive backing (PSA). The sandpaper can be replaced without removing either the table or the dust port.

To attach sandpaper, do these steps:

1.DISCONNECT MACHINE FROM POWER!

2.Remove the safety guard, peel off the old sandpaper, clean the disc surface with mineral spirits, and wipe it dry.

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

4.Slip the half with the protective layer between the disc and the table edge (see Figure 12).

5.Position the exposed adhesive on the upper half of the disc that extends above the table. Once it is positioned evenly across the disc, press the adhesive onto the surface.

6.Rotate the disc so the lower half is above the table. Peel off the other half of the protective paper, and press the remaining sandpaper against the disc so adhesion is complete.

7.Re-install the safety guard.
