DUST COLLECTION
For optimal dust removal and minimal clean-up, this sander
is equipped with two dust ports: one for the belt and one
for the disc.
To connect the sanding belt dust port adapter:
1. Insert the belt dust port adapter into the dust port (p.
11, Fig. 2 - 3) on the left side of the sander.
NOTE:
it is not
necessary to attach the sanding belt adapter.
To connect the sanding disc dust port:
1. Align the 3 holes on the sanding disc dust port with 3
holes located on the right side of the sander below the
sanding disc. See Fig. 6.
2. Secure the disc dust port into position using the included
3 washers and screws.
To connect a dust collection system to the machine:
1. Fit a 1.5-inch dust hose (not included) over the onboard
dust port on the side of the machine (belt or disc) to be
used. Secure it with a hose clamp if needed (not included).
Alternatively, use the included dust port adapter to attach a
2-1/4-inch dust hose (not included) to the machine. Use a
hose clamp (not included) to secure the hose to the adapter
if needed.
2. Tug the hose to make sure the fitting is tight. A tight fit is
necessary for proper performance.
3. Connect the other end of the dust hose to the dust collec-
tion system of your choice. A dust port adapter (not includ-
ed) may be needed, depending on the inlet size of your dust
extractor. The onboard dust ports have an outer diameter of
1.5 inches, and an inner diameter of 1.4 inches.
INSTALL SANDING DISC TABLE
1. Hold the disc table at an upwards angle of 45°. Align the inner extrusions on the disc table with the slots on either
side of the sanding disc (Fig. 6 - 1). Slide inwards then upwards.
2. Align the locking knobs with the holes on either side of the sanding disc (Fig. 7). Turn clockwise to secure the
disc table into place.
NOTE:
Failure to use a dust collection system
will void the warranty on this item. You must use
a dust collection system for the warranty to be
valid.
