Site Considerations
Weight Load
The Model G7297 Disc Sander is a small weight load with a small footprint. Most shop floors and workbenches should be sufficient to carry the weight of the machine. Reinforce the floor and workbench if you question its ability to support the weight.
Working Clearance
Working clearances can be thought of as the distances between machines and obstacles that allow safe operation of every machine without limitation. Consider existing and anticipated machine needs, size of material to be processed through each machine, and space for auxiliary stands or work tables. Also consider the relative position of each machine to one another for efficient material handling.
Lighting And Outlets
Lighting should be bright enough to eliminate shadow and prevent eye strain. Electrical circuits should be dedicated or large enough to handle the amperage draw. Outlets should be located near each machine so power or extension cords are clear of high-traffic areas. Observe local electrical codes for proper installation of new lighting, outlets, or circuits.
Unsupervised children and visitors inside your shop could receive serious personal injury.
Ensure child and visitor safety by keeping all entrances to the shop locked at all times. DO
NOT allow unsupervised children or visitors in the shop at any time.

SECTION 7: OPERATIONS
General Disc Sanding
This section will cover basic disc sanding operations. Please read the remaining portion of the manual before attempting any type of operation.
Your safety is important! Please follow the warnings below during this entire section:
Damage to your eyes, lungs, and ears could result from failure to wear safety glasses, a dust mask, and hearing protection while sanding with this machine.
To perform sanding operations:
1.
Set the angle of the table relative to the sanding disc. The angle can be set with the angle gauge on the disc sander or with a protractor for greater accuracy.
2.
When a 90˚ horizontal angle is required, place one surface of the workpiece firmly against the face of the miter gauge (set at
0˚), with the other surface against the face of the disc ( Figure 8 ).
Note— For sanding curves or irregular shapes, remove the miter gauge from the disc table.
Always keep the workpiece on the side of the wheel that is rotating down toward the table. This will keep the workpiece from flying out of your hands from the rotational forces.
Loose hair and clothing could get caught in machinery and cause serious personal injury.
Keep loose clothing rolled up and long hair tied up and away from machinery.
Figure 8. Disc sanding.
Operating this equipment has the potential to propel debris into the air which can cause eye injury. Always wear safety glasses or goggles when operating equipment.
Everyday glasses or reading glasses only have impact resistant lenses, they are not safety glasses. Be certain the safety glasses you wear meet the appropriate standards of the American National Standards
Institute (ANSI).
-14G7297 Disc Sander
Miter Sanding
The most efficient way to get a perfect miter is to cut the workpiece slightly long and sand it to the desired dimension. Miter sanding can be done easily with the miter gauge:
To perform miter sanding operations:
1.
Loosen the knob on the miter gauge and adjust the angle to the desired point. Tighten the knob.
2.
Slide the miter gauge into its slot and use it to hold your workpiece in position. Note—
The miter gauge can be used in either direction in the slot to achieve the proper relation of the workpiece to the disc.
3.
With light, but firm pressure, push the workpiece slowly into the downspin side of the rotating disc ( Figure 9 ).
Angle Sanding
To perform angle sanding operations:
1.
Loosen the handles securing the table.
2.
Use the angle gauge to acheive the desired table angle and tighten the handles . Note—
The disc table can be positioned from -15° to
35°, relative to the plane of the sanding surface. Whenever possible, sand with an open angle where there is plenty of clearance between the disc and the table. This will avoid trapping the workpiece between the sanding surface and the table.
3.
Slide the miter gauge into its slot and use it to hold your workpiece in position.
4.
With light, but firm pressure, push the workpiece slowly into the downspin side of the rotating disc ( Figure 10 ).
