Sanding with the belt in the
vertical position
Sometimes the sanding on the belt is
more convenient with it positioned
vertically
– or any angle in between 0
& 90 degrees.
To adjust, loosen the locking screw
using a 5mm hex key. Position the
belt bed as required and then re-
tighten the screw.
Always use the worktable to support
the workpiece.
Sanding with the Disc
The disc sander is ideally suited to
smoothing end grain and fine-tuning
angled cuts with the aid of the mitre
guide.
Whenever possible use the front half
of the exposed disc as this will hold
the workpiece against the table.
If it is necessary to use the full width
of the disc, care must be taken to
hold the workpiece firmly as the rear
half will tend to cause it to lift.
Keep the workpiece moving to
achieve the best finish.
