2. Move towards the sanding disc’s outer edge to remove more
material and closer to the center to remove less material.
SANDING
1. Hold the workpiece firmly and lightly press against the
sanding belt (F). Use the work guard (A) or work table (E)
for support during sanding. Apply just enough pressure to
remove the desired amount of material. Move the workpiece
back and forth across the belt.
2. Use the end of the sanding platform that juts out to sand
inside curves. Always press the workpiece against the
upper curve of the belt to prevent kickback. Continue to
move the workpiece back and forth until the desired
surface is achieved.
3. Sand outer curves on the sanding disc, using the work table
as support
WORK TABLE
WARNING! Changing the work table angle may leave a gap
larger than 1/8 in. between the table edge and sanding
belt/disc. A finger may become trapped in this gap when the
tool is operating and result in an injury. Position your hands to
prevent this from happening.
The work table (E) is held in place by a pin and locking knob
(see Installation) on either the rear for use with the sanding
belt or the left side for use with the sanding disc.
The work table can be repositioned at an angle in relation to
the sanding belt or disc. There is a degree gauge on the left
side of the tool, but an angle finder tool is recommended for
greater accuracy.
The work table has a slot for the mitre gauge.
