Rise and Full Control Assembly

The table on this sander remains level whilst the 
whole motor and disc arrangement tilts. This 
allows your work to stay level, improving accuracy 
and safety. The disc can be tilted from -5° to + 
45°
, enabling many tasks to be undertaken. The 
disc angles are adjusted by a rack and pinion 
arrangement, plus there is a quick action index 
system enabling you pre select angles from -5, 0, 15, 
22.5, 30 & 45°
.

Tilting the Disc Sander

1. Unlock the tilt handle lock (a), see fig 12. 
 
2. Twist the rise and fall Control knob (b), until you 
have the correct angle. Then lock the assembly in 
place with the locking handle (a). (see fig 12-13)
