4. Operating instructions
4.1 Bevel sanding using the work table
The work table can be tilted to an angle of 0–45°.
1. Undo the locking knob (25) and tilt the work table to the desired angle.
2. Tighten the locking knob. The supplied mitre gauge (20) should be used when
sanding small workpieces on the sanding disc.
a) Hold the mitre gauge against one side of the workpiece.
b) Always hold the workpiece against the left half of the sanding disc.
4.2 Surface sanding on the sanding belt
The belt can be used either horizontally
or vertically. The backstop (4) can also be
used with the belt in either position.
Surface sanding is best done horizontally.
1. Hold the workpiece firmly in both hands,
making sure that your hands do not
touch the belt.
2. Keep one end of the workpiece firmly
pressed against the backstop.
3. Move the workpiece slowly back and forth sideways across the sanding belt.
Be careful when sanding thin workpieces.
4. Do not exert too much pressure; a light touch is all that is required. Remove a little
material on each pass.
Note:
The backstop should be removed for sanding long workpieces.
4.3 Sanding the ends of long workpieces
Use the work table (19) as a support when sanding the ends of long workpieces.
4.4 Sanding curved surfaces
Always sand inside radius curves on the idler
roller (9).
Warning:
Never attempt to sand the ends
of a workpiece on the idler roller as
the workpiece can kickback and cause
an injury.
