1. Position the disc-sanding table by tipping it up and 

threading the small nipples on the back side of the 

‘angle-gauge’ onto the mounting area of the disc-

sander. 

2. Align the screw holes so that the screw will travel 

through the angle-gauge openings on either side of 

the disc into the mounting holes on the disc sander.

3. Using the disc-table adjustment handles, fasten the 

table to the sander.

4. When required, install the mitre-gauge into the slot 

on the disc-sanding table.

Belt-Table Adjustments

Ensure sander is disconnected from the power supply 

prior to commencing work.

For most sanding operations, the table will likely 

remain at a 90º angle to the belt. A positive stop is 

provided with your sander to ensure fast positioning 

of the table at 90 degrees to the belt. To ensure and 

check the positive-stop 90º angle, proceed as follows:

1. Loosen the table-locking lever.

2. Tilt the table to the rear as far as possible.

3. Using a square, protractor or other tool shown 

verify or adjust the table angle to ensure a 90º angle.

4. To set the sanding angle to a different angle, tilt 

table to the front until it is at the required angle.

5. Tighten the table-locking lever.

Disc Table Adjustments

Ensure sander is disconnected from the power supply 

prior to commencing work.

1. 

To check the trueness of the 90º angle of the 

disc-sanding table, place a square or other measur-

ing device on the table with the other end against the 

sanding disc.

2. 

Loosen disc-table adjustment handles, and 

adjust table angle to 90º.

3. 

Retighten disc-table adjustment handles.

4. 

To adjust disc table to another angle, loosen 

disc-table adjustment handles;

5. 

Set table at desired angle.

6. 

Retighten disc-table adjustment handles.
