screw through the hole on the back of the V-belt

safety cover (see Figure 13)

screw to secure the disc to the motor arbor.

12. Install the disc dust cover, as shown in

Figure 14, with three M4-.7 x 10 Phillips head

screws and flat washers.

13. Lay the sander down on a flat surface, as

shown in Figure 15, and place a thin piece of

cardboard approximately 1⁄16” thick over the

sanding disc. This piece of carboard will act as a

spacer when you install the disc table.

14. Keeping the cardboard in place, align the

half-arc key of the disc table with the indented

keyway on the disc guard (see the inset of Fig-

ure 16). Then secure the table with a table lock

handle, and remove the cardboard.

15. Secure the dust port, as shown in Figure

17, with the M6-1 x 15 Phillips head screw and

flatwasher.

16. Square the disc table to the sanding disc

(refer to Squaring Disc Table on Page 14).

17. Using the M4-.7 x 10 Phillips head screw,

align the red scale pointer with the “0” mark on

the table angle scale (see Figure 18).

18. Install the belt table with a 1⁄16” clearance

from the sanding belt, and secure it in place with

the table lock handle (see Figure 19).

19. Loosen the cap screw shown in Figure 20,

adjust the belt support approximately 1⁄16” away

from the sanding belt, then re-tighten the cap

screw.
