Use the right tools for the job. Do not attempt to force a small tool or attachment to
do the work of a larger industrial tool or attachment. There are certain applications for
which this tool was designed. It will do the job better and more safely at the rate for
which it was intended. Do not modify this tool, and do not use this tool for a purpose for
which it was not intended.
11.
Allow the Sanding Belt and Sanding Disc to spin up to full speed before feeding
a workpiece into them. When turning off the Sander, allow the Sanding Belt and
Sanding Disc to slow down and stop on their own. Do not press against the Belt or Disc

Feed the workpiece into the Sanding Belt and Sanding Disc gradually and into
the direction of rotation. Do not attempt to force the Sander to remove material faster
than it was designed to cut.

When replacing the Sanding Belt, make sure the Belt has a minimum 2000 FPM
rating. When replacing the Sanding Disc, make sure the Disc has a minimum
3500 RPM rating.
14.
To avoid damage to the Sander and personal injury, allow 1/16” clearance between
the Sanding Belt and Backstop and 1/16” clearance between the Sanding Disc
and Worktable.

When sanding a large workpiece, make sure its entire length is properly supported.
16.
Never attempt to remove material stuck in the moving parts of the Sander while
it is plugged in or running.
