Using the Sander
This sander is designed for use with wood and wood-based products only. It should not be used for
sanding metal and any such use would invalidate the warranty.
The machine should be placed on a firm level surface before use.
Sanding with the belt in the horizontal
position
The back stop must always be used as a
support when carrying out edge or face
sanding in the horizontal position.
Move the workpiece across the belt while
keeping one edge against the stop.
Do not use excessive pressure and take
extra care when sanding thin material.
Sanding internal curves
With care the idler drum end of the
sanding belt can be used for smoothing &
shaping the inside of curved workpieces.
Never present the end of a workpiece to
the drum as this can cause it to kick
back.
Sanding with the belt in the vertical
position
Sometimes sanding on the belt is more
convenient when it is positioned vertically
– or at any angle in between 0 & 90
degrees.
To adjust, loosen the locking screw using
the 6mm hex key. Position the belt bed
as required and then re-tighten the
screw.
Always use the tool rest to support the
workpiece.
