The platen can be adjusted from 0-45°, making
it perfect for angled workpieces. Whenever the
tilt is adjusted, the clearance between the platen

Edge & End Sanding
Proper use of this sander will yield excellent
sanding results due to the oscillating move-
ment. Always use the miter gauge to support the
workpiece whenever possible.
Moving sanding belt can cause serious
personal injury if it comes in contact with
fingers, hands, or other body parts. Make
sure workpiece is always supported against
table. Use extreme care to provide a safe
distance between belt and any part of your
body.
