GROUNDING DNSTRUCTIONS
IN THE EVENT OF A MALFUNCTmON OR BREAKDOWN, grounding provides a path of least resistance for electric current and reduces the risk of electric shock. This tool is equipped with an electric cord that has an equipment grounding conductor and a grounding plug. The plug
MUST be plugged into a matching receptacle thai is properly installed and grounded in accordance with ALL local codes and ordinances.
DO NOT MODIFYTHE PLUG PROVIDED. If it will not fit the receptacle, have the proper receptacle installed by a qualified electrician.
IMPROPER CONNECTION of the equipment grounding conductor can result in risk of electric shock. The conductor with the green insulation (with or without yellow stripes) is the equipment grounding conductor. If repair or replacement of the electric cord or plug is necessary, DO
NOT connect the equipment grounding conductor to a live terminal.
This tool is intended for use on a circuit that has a receptacle like the one illustrated in FIGURE A.
FIGURE A shows a 3-prong electrical plug and receptacle that has a grounding conductor. If a properly grounded receptacle is not available, an adapter (FIGURE B) can be used to temporarily connect this plug to a 2-contact ungrounded receptacle. The temporary adapter should be used only until a properly grounded receptacle can be installed by a qualified technician. The adapter (FAGURE B) has a rigid lug extending from it that MUST be connected loa permanent earth ground, such as a properly grounded receptacle box. The Canadian Electrical Code prohibits the use of adapters.
CAUTmON: In all cases, make certain the receptacle in question is properly grounded. If you are not sure have a certified electrician check the receptacle.
This belt / disc sander is for indoor use only. Do not expose to rain or use in damp locations.

The belt and disc sander is designed to perform rough sanding operations on surface, edge grain and end grain sanding. The sander will also perform freehand forming and contouring operations. The following suggestions are recommended for best results and safest use.
1.
Always apply light pressure allowing the abrasive to remove the material slowly.
2.
The workpiece should be moved, continuously, to avoid burning.
3, Avoid sanding small pieces of wood which will position the fingers close to the abrasive belt or disc.
USING BACKSTOP WITH SANDING ARIVl (FIG. X)
When using the sanding arm in the horizontal position, to perform surface or edge sanding, the backstop (1) must always be used. Always hold the work piece (2) firmly keeping your fingers away from the sanding belt (3).
Always keep the end of the workpiece against the backstop and move the work evenly across the sanding belt. Apply only enough pressure to allow the sanding belt to remove material, Use extra caution when sanding very thin piece&
The edge of the backstop must be positioned a maximum of 1/16" from the sanding belt to avoid trapping the work or fingers between the backstop and sanding belt.
Fig. X
SANDING INSIDE CURVES (FIG. Y}
Freehand sanding of inside curves can be sanded on the idler drum (1). Never attempt to sand the ends of a workpiece on the drive drum.
END GRAIN SANDING WITH THE BELT (FroG.AA)
When sanding the ends of the wide workpieces it is more convenient to use the sanding belt (1) with the sanding arm in the vertical position and the table assembly (2) moved to the sanding belt, as shown. See section titled CHANGING POSITION OF SANDING ARM.
To avoid injury, do not apply the end of the workpiece to the idler drum. This could cause the workpiece to fly up or cause kickback.
Fig. Y
For more accurate work use the miter gauge and move the workpiece evenly across the sanding belt.
WMPORTANT: Use a combination square to position miter gauge perpendicular to face of the disc. If it is not square loosen miter gauge knob and move miter gauge, slightly, until it is square.
For your own safety, turn switch OFF and remove plug from the power source outlet during assembly or while making adjustments to belt / disc sander.
SANDING OUTSIDE CURVES (FroG.Z)
Freehand sanding of outside curves should be done on the sanding disc (1). Keep fingers a minimum of 1 inch from the disc.
The edge of the table must be positioned a maximum of
1/16" from the sanding belt to avoid trapping the workpiece or fingers between the table and sanding belt.
Fig. AA
Always sand on the left (downward) side of the sanding disc, as shown. Sanding on the right (upward) side of the sanding disc could cause the workpiece to fly up which could be hazardous.
The edge of the table must be positioned a maximum of
1/16" from the sanding disc to avoid trapping the workpiece or fingers between the table and sanding disc,
