MOUNTING RUBBER FEET TO BASE
See Figure 5.

Place the sander directly on the table surface.
 From the parts bag locate the four rubber feet.
 Place the sander on its side so the bottom of the base is
facing toward the front.
 Locate the four holes in each corner of the base and place
one of the rubber feet in each of these holes.
 Position sander in the upright position and apply pressure
in the downward position to ensure the feet are inserted
securely.
CAUTION:
To reduce the risk of injury from tool movement,
the supporting surface where sander is mounted
should be examined carefully after mounting to
insure no movement during use can result. If any
tipping or walking is noticed, secure to workbench
or supporting surface before operating sander.
MOUNTING SANDER TO WORKBENCH
See Figure 6.
If sander is to be used in a permanent location, it should be
fastened securely to a firm supporting surface, such as a
workbench, with either bolts or drywall screws.
Fastening with bolts
 Use 1/4 in. bolts, washers, and nuts (not included). The
bolt length should be 1-1/ in. plus the thickness of the
workbench.
 Locate and mark the holes where the sander is to be
mounted.
 Drill four 3/8 in. diameter holes through workbench.
 Place sander on workbench, aligning holes in base with
holes drilled in workbench.
 Insert four 1/4 in. diameter bolts and washers and attach
nuts securely.
Fastening with screws
 Drive four -1/ in. long screws through the holes in the
base and through the workbench. Do not overtighten the
screws.
