Miter gauge – Disc sander
A miter-gauge is supplied with your sander, and can be used on the disc table. The miter gauge
head can be set anywhere up to 60º (right or left) by loosening the lock-knob, setting the miter
gauge head to the desired angle, and retightening the lock-knob.
Sanding small end grain and other small surfaces using the miter gauge
Use of the miter gauge is recommended for sanding small end surfaces on the sanding disc.
Note: Always move the workpiece across the sanding disc from the left side towards the right side,
and be sure to hold the workpiece down tightly onto the table surface.
Maintenance
WARNING:
For your own safety, turn the switch OFF and remove the plug from the
electrical outlet before adjusting or performing maintenance or lubrication work on the belt/disc
sander.
Before using, check to make sure parts are not damaged, missing, or worn; check for alignment of
moving parts, binding of moving parts, improper mounting, or any other conditions that may affect
the sander operation. Should any of these conditions exist, do not use the sander until properly
repaired or parts are replaced. Frequently blow or vacuum dust from all sanding parts and motor
housing.
WARNING:
Any attempt to repair or replace electrical parts on this tool may be hazardous.
Repairs should be done by a qualified service technician.
Lubrication
Ball bearings are grease packed at the factory and require no further lubrication. Use a spray
lubricant on all moving table parts to ensure smooth operation.
