Square the tables
To ensure accurate end sanding, the work tables must be square to the sanding surfaces prior to
using the tables for disc sanding.
1.
Adjust the table to be 90° with the sanding surface.
2.
Using a combination square (1), place one end on the
table with the ruler end against the sanding surface
(3). Check that the table is 90° to the sanding surface.
3.
If the table is not 90° to the sanding surface, loosen
the handle (4), adjust the table, tighten the handle
and recheck with the square.
Square the work support
The work support (2) must be square to the sanding belt
when using the belt sander in a horizontal position. To
keep the workpiece from being carried along the belt:
1.
Make sure the sanding belt is tight; also check that
the tension lever is fully tightened.
2.
Place the combination square (1) on the belt with the
ruler against the work support (2).
3.

(3), square the work support.
