MOUNTING BELT AND DISC SANDER TO
WORKBENCH
If belt and disc sander is to be used in a permanent location, it
should be fastened securely to a firm supporting surface such as
a workbench.
If mounting to a workbench, holes should be drilled through
supporting surface of the workbench using dimensions illustrated.
1. The unit should be bolted securely using 5/16” screws and hex
nuts (not included). Screw length should be 1-1/2” plus the
thickness of the bench top.
2. Locate and mark the holes where belt and disc sander is to be
mounted.
3. Drill (2) 3/8” diameter holes through workbench.
4. Place belt and disc sander on workbench aligning holes on
base with holes drilled in workbench.
5. Insert two 5/16” screws and tighten hex nuts.
CLAMPING BELT AND DISC SANDER TO
WORKBENCH
The belt and disc sander can be clamped directly to a workbench
using two (2) or more “C” clamps on base of unit (one clamp on
each end of unit).

OUTLINE OF SANDER
An altemate method of mounting is to fasten belt and disc sander
to a mounting board. The board should be of sufficient size to
avoid tipping of sander while in use. Any good grade of plywood
or chipboard with a 3/4” minimun thickness is recommended.
(Thinner chip-board can break.)
CAUTION:
To avoid injury from tool movement, use 5/16” or
larger screws and nuts.
1. Follow instructions for mounting to workbench, substituting
a board 18” x 24” minimum size and using 5/16” inch flat
head screws, lockwashers, and hex nuts (not included). Screw
length should be 1 - 1/2” plus the thickness of the mounting
board.
NOTE:
For proper stability, holes must be counter sunk so screw
heads are flush with the bottom surface of supporting board.
CAUTION: To avoid injury from tool movement, sup-
porting surface where belt and disc sander is moun-
ted should be examined carefully after mounting to
insure that no movement during use can result. If any tipping
or walking is noted, secure workbench or supporting surface
before operating belt and disc sander.
