OPERATION (CONTINUED)
•
Replace abrasives when they become loaded (glazed) or frayed.
•
When grinding metal, move workpiece across abrasive to
prevent heat build-up.
•
Never attempt wet sanding. If workpiece becomes too hot to
handle, cool it in water.
POSITION BELT TABLE
Refer to Figures 8 and 11.
The belt table (Ref. No. 54) can be tilted from 0° (at right angle to
the table) to 45°. To adjust belt table position:
•
Unlock the handle (Ref. No. 58) on the right side of table.
•
Set the belt table to any angle between 0° and 45° using the
scale.
•
Lock the handle to secure belt table position.
WORK STOP
Refer to Figure 11.
The work stop (Ref. No. 23) can be used instead of the belt table.
•
Remove belt table from the belt housing (Ref. No. 34) by loos-
ening and removing handle (Ref. No. 58).
•
Mount workstop using bolt (Ref. No. 22) and washer (Ref. No. 21)
which are located on belt housing.
ADJUSTING BELT HOUSING
Refer to Figures 9, 11 and 12.
The belt housing (Figure 11, Ref. No. 34) can be positioned at a full
vertical position, a full horizontal position, or at any angle in
between which is convenient for the sanding operation.
To adjust belt housing position:
•
Loosen and remove four knobs (Figure 12, Ref. Nos. 18 and 21).
•
Remove dust hoods (Figure 12, Ref. Nos. 19 and 20).
•
Loosen hex nuts (Figure 11, Ref. No. 8).
•
Move to the rear of the sander.
•
Gently push belt housing to move to the desired angle.
•
A positive stop bolt (Figure 12, Ref. No. 26) is provided to stop
the belt housing at the full horizontal position.
•
Tighten both hex nuts (Figure 11, Ref. No. 8) to secure belt
housing position.
•
Replace dust hoods using the knobs.
HORIZONTAL BELT SANDING
Refer to Figures 9 and 11.
•
Adjust the belt housing to full horizontal position as described
in the above section, “Adjusting Belt Housing”.
•
Remove the belt table by removing handle(Ref. No. 58).
•
Install work stop as described in “Work Stop”.
•
Idler drum (Ref. No. 44) can be used as a contact drum to sand
curved surfaces. (Removing belt guard [Ref. No. 50] will be
required.)
ABRASIVE BELT FINISHING
•
Finishing flat surfaces: Hold workpiece firmly with both hands;
keep fingers away from abrasive belt.
•
Use work stop. Work stop is used to position and secure work
being sanded. Keep end butted against work stop and move
work evenly across abrasive belt. Use extra caution when finish-
ing very thin pieces.
•
Finishing long pieces: remove work stop. Apply only enough
pressure to allow abrasive belt to remove material.
•
Finishing curved edges: Finish outside curves on flat portion of
abrasive belt. Finish inside curves on idler drum portion of
abrasive belt.
•
Finishing end grain: It is more convenient to finish ends of long
workpieces with the abrasive belt in a vertical position.
•
Move work evenly across the belt.
•
For accuracy use miter gauge.
•
Adjust belt table angle for beveled work.
USING MITER GAUGE
Refer to Figure 12.
•
The miter gauge is used on either the disc or belt table. Use the
miter gauge for securing the work and holding the proper
angle while sanding.
•
Adjust angle by repositioning the miter gauge (Ref. No. 5).
Loosen the knob (Ref. No. 2) to reposition miter gauge.
•
Tighten the knob to secure miter gauge position.
•
Miter gauge assembly has a positive stop set-up for 90° and 45°
on either side.
•
To use the positive stop, loosen the knob, retract the indexing
pin (Ref. No. 16), turn the miter gauge slightly, slide in indexing
pin and turn the miter gauge until the edge of the screw (Ref.
No. 12) is stopped by the indexing pin.
•
Check accuracy of miter gauge scale (Ref. No. 9).
•
Use a combination square to adjust miter gauge square to disc.
Scale should be at zero. Loosen screw (Ref. No. 7) and reposition
scale if necessary.
