OPERATION

•  Plug power cord into a 120 VAC outlet and move power switch up to the  

“ON” position.

•  When using the Belt Sanding feature, allow your workpiece to gently rest  

against the Belt Table/Work Stop and move it from side to side as the belt  
is moving 

(FIG 5)

.  

•  When using the Disc Sanding feature, allow your workpiece to gently rest on the 

Adjustable Disc Table/Miter Plate and gently apply it to the disc as it is rotating, 
do not force it into the disc 

(FIG 6)

.  

•  The Adjustable Disc Table angle is adjustable vertically from 0° to 45° and the 

Miter Plate Fence is angle adjustable horizontally through a full 120° to allow 
precise angle grinding of tool surfaces. 

ABRASIVE BELT REMOVAL

1. 

Unscrew the two knobs on the plastic Belt Cover and remove the cover 

(FIG 7)

.

2. 

Remove the Lower Guard by removing the retaining screw with a Phillips head 
screwdriver 

(FIG 8)

.

3.

4. 

Remove the belt from the rollers 

(FIG 9)

.

 

  DO NOT keep the workpiece in one place while sanding and  

DO NOT push the workpiece into the belt with excessive force as 
this will overheat the belt causing premature wear, failure and 
possibly personal injury.

 

  Unplug tool before beginning belt replacement or severe  

 

personal injury could result if motor should start during this 
procedure. Always use an Eastwood approved 2” x 42” sanding 
belt to insure safe operation.

  The Disc rotates in a Clockwise direction when viewed from 

the front. Always sand or grind using only the RIGHT SIDE of the 
Disc (FIG 6). Working from the left side can cause objects to be 
suddenly and violently ejected outward causing severe personal 
injury and/or property damage.

WARNING! 

Only Work From 

Right Side!
