Choosing Sandpaper Operation Safety
Your safety is important! Please follow the
warnings below during this entire section:
The grit you choose will depend on the type of
work, the species of wood and the stage of finish-
ing. Below is a chart that groups abrasives into
different categories and shows which grits fall into
each-one. We recommend using aluminum oxide
sanding belts for the best results.
The general rule of thumb is to sand a workpiece
with progressively higher grit numbers, with no
one grit increase of more than 50; however, the
type of wood and desired finish will determine the
best grit to use.
Grit Type
60
80-100
120-150
Coarse
Medium
Fine
To avoid serious personal injury, read and
become familiar with the entire instruction
manual before using this wide belt sander.
Damage to your eyes, lungs, and ears
could result from failure to wear safety
glasses, a dust mask, and hearing protec-
tion while sanding with this machine.
Loose hair and cloth-
ing could get caught in
machinery and cause
serious personal inju-
ry. Keep loose clothing
rolled up and long hair
tied up and away from
machinery.
