3.1 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 toa firm
supporting surface such as a workbench.
If mounting to a workbench, holes should be drilled
throung 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.
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 ¾” minimum thickness is
recommended. (Thinner chipboard 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 t 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, supporting surface where belt and disc
sander is mounted 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.
