22, is located on the sander base. To turn the sander “ON” move the switch up to the “ON” position. To turn the sander “OFF” move the switch down to the “OFF” position. A Fig. 22 11 LOCKING SWITCH IN THE “OFF” POSITION IMPORTANT: When the machine is not in use, the switch should be locked in the “OFF” position to prevent unauthorized use. This can be done by grasping the switch toggle (B) Fig. 23, and pulling it out of the switch as shown. With the switch toggle (B) removed, the switch will not operate. However, should the switch toggle be removed while the machine is running, it can be turned “OFF” once, but cannot be restarted without inserting the switch toggle (B). TRACKING THE SANDING BELT 1. Turn the switch “ON” and “OFF” and check to see if the sanding belt tends to move to one side or the other on the two sanding drums. If the belt does not move to one side or the other and rides on the center of the sanding drums the belt is tracking properly. 2. If the sanding belt moves toward the disc, turn the tracking knob (A) Fig. 24, counterclockwise 1/4 turn. 3. If the sanding belt moves away from the disc, turn the tracking knob (A) Fig. 24, clockwise 1/4 turn. 4. Turn the switch “ON” and “OFF” again, and check to see if the sanding belt moves to one side or the other and readjust tracking knob if necessary. CHANGING POSITION OF SANDING ARM 1. DISCONNECT MACHINE FROM POWER SOURCE. 2. The sanding arm (A) can be used in the horizontal position, as shown in Fig. 25; vertical position, as shown in Fig. 26; or any angle in between by loosening screw (B), positioning the arm (A) to the desired angle and tightening screw (B). B Fig. 23 A Fig. 24 A B Fig. 25 A B Fig. 26 12 ADJUSTING BACKSTOP SQUARE WITH SANDING BELT 1. DISCONNECT MACHINE FROM POWER SOURCE. 2. When making this adjustment make sure the belt tension lever (A) Fig. 28, is all the way to the left in the tightened position, as shown. 3. Place a square (B) Fig. 29, on the sanding belt with one end of the square against the backstop, and check to see if the backstop is square with the sanding belt. 4. If an adjustment is necessary, loosen screw (C) Fig. 29, and adjust the backstop accordingly. TILTING THE TABLE 1. DISCONNECT MACHINE FROM POWER SOURCE. 2. The table can be tilted up to 45 degrees to the right by loosening the table lock knob (A) Fig. 30, tilting the table to the desired angle, and tightening table lock knob (A). 3. WARNING: AFTER TILTING, THE TABLE ASSEMBLY MUST BE REPOSITIONED ON THE SUPPORT ROD (B) FIG. 30, TO PROVIDE A MAXIMUM OF 1/16 INCH DISTANCE BETWEEN THE SANDING DISC (C), AND THE EDGE (D) OF THE TABLE, TO AVOID TRAPPING THE WORK OR FINGERS BETWEEN THE DISC AND TABLE. TO REPOSITION THE TABLE ASSEMBLY, LOOSEN SCREW (E), MOVE TABLE ASSEMBLY ON ROD (B), AND TIGHTEN SCREW (E). ADJUSTING TABLE SQUARE WITH SANDING DISC 1. DISCONNECT MACHINE FROM POWER SOURCE. 2. Using a combination square, place one end of the square on the table with the other end against the sanding disc, as shown in Fig. 31, and check to see if the table is 90 degrees to the disc. 3. If the table surface is not 90 degrees to the disc, loosen table lock knob (A) Fig. 31, adjust table square with disc and tighten lock knob (A). 4. Adjust pointer (B) Fig. 31, to the 0 degree mark on the angle scale. 13 A Fig. 28 C B Fig. 29 Fig. 30 B E A D C A B Fig. 31 ADJUSTING MITER GAGE SLOT PARALLEL WITH SANDING DISC 1. DISCONNECT MACHINE FROM POWER SOURCE. 2. Using a combination square (A) in the miter gage slot, check the distance from the slot to each end of the sanding disc, as shown in Figs. 32 and 33. This distance should be the same. 3. If an adjustment to the table is necessary, loosen the three screws (B) Fig. 34, that fasten the table to the table mounting bracket and trunnion and adjust the table accordingly - then tighten the three screws (B). MITER GAGE A miter gage (A) Fig. 35, is supplied with your machine and is used with the disc table. The miter gage body (A) can be rotated right or left for angle or miter sanding by loosening lock knob (B), rotate miter gage body and tighten lock knob (B). A Fig. 32 A Fig. 33 B Fig. 34 B A Fig. 35 14 USING TABLE ASSEMBLY WITH SANDING BELT When the sanding arm (A) Fig. 36, is used in the vertical position, the complete table assembly (B) can be moved from the disc unit to the belt unit as follows: 1. DISCONNECT MACHINE FROM POWER SOURCE. 2. Remove the backstop (C) Fig. 36. 3. Thread the M8x1.25x20mm hex socket head screw (D) Fig. 36, into base casting as shown. NOTE: Only thread screw (D) partway into base casting. 4. Loosen screw (E) Fig. 36, and remove table assembly (B) from disc unit. Insert bar (F) into hole (G) on belt unit and tighten screw (D). 5. Fig. 37, illustrates the table assembly (B) assembled to the belt unit. WARNING: THE TABLE EDGE (G) MUST BE POSITIONED A MAXIMUM OF 1/16 INCH AWAY FROM THE SANDING BELT (H) TO AVOID TRAPPING THE WORK OR FINGERS BETWEEN THE TABLE AND SANDING BELT.
