Any sanding angle can be chosen. The adjustable 90°stop is
located on the back of the machine.
The mitre gauge (D) may be used.
The machine table is adjustable in height (see chapter 7.5).
Note:
With the machine table slightly tilted and the workpiece
moving longitudinally you can achieve an additional
oscillation and an improved sanding surface.
