THANK YOU

 

 
for choosing this General® International model 15-142 1” or 

2” x 42” belt & 8” disc sander. This sander has been carefully tested and inspected before  
shipment and if properly used and maintained, will provide you with years of reliable service. 
For your safety, as well as to ensure optimum performance and trouble-free operation, and to 
get the most from your investment, please take the time to read this manual before assembling, 
installing and operating the unit.

The manual’s purpose is to familiarize you with the safe operation, basic function, and 
features of this sander as well as the set-up, maintenance and identification of its parts and 
components. This manual is not intended as a substitute for formal woodworking instruction, 
nor to offer the user instruction in the craft of woodworking. If you are not sure about the safety 
of performing a certain operation or procedure, do not proceed until you can confirm, from 
knowledgeable and qualified sources, that it is safe to do so.

 Once you’ve read through these instructions, keep this manual handy for future reference.

to ensure that the specifications and information in 

this manual corresponds with that of the unit with

Further, as several generations of this model of sander
