ADJUSTMENTS
-15-
The scale pointers on the sander indicate the
tilt angle of the sanding tables. The pointers
have been set at the factory but throughout
the life of your machine, you may need to
adjust them.
To adjust the scale pointers, do these steps:
1.
UNPLUG THE SANDER!
2.
Loosen the table tilting lock knob shown in
Figure 12
and rotate the table so it is per-
pendicular with the edge of the sanding
disc.
3.
Place a machinist square on the disc sand-
ing table and against the sanding disc to
check for squareness (shown in
Figure 13
).
4.
Lock the table tilt knob when the table is
perpendicular to the disc.
5.
Loosen the screw securing the pointer and
adjust it so it indicates 90˚(
Figure 13
).
6.
Repeat
steps 1-5
to adjust the belt sand-
ing table.
