VARIABLE SPEED
The CX509 features a variable speed knob
which allows you to increase the feed rate
from 2-12 FPM. The correct speed to use
depends on the type of wood being used.
A slower feed rate will provide a smoother
result but has the risk of burning the wood
while a faster feed rate removes the
material faster but has the risk of
overloading the motor or damaging the
sanding paper.
We recommend to run a few test runs with
different speeds before sanding your actual
work-piece.
TO ADJUST THE FEED BELT SPEED:
Turn ON the feed belt.
Rotate the variable speed knob to increase
or decrease the feed speed.
