OPERATIONS

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, do these steps:

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. Turn the sander ON, and with light, but firm

pressure, push the workpiece slowly into the down-

spin (left) side of the rotating disc (see Figure 13).

When finished, turn the sander OFF.

Figure 13. Miter sanding.

Disc Sanding

To perform 90˚disc sanding, do these steps:

1. Setthetiltangleofthetableto0˚.Theanglecan

be set with the angle gauge on the sander or with a

protractor for greater accuracy.

2. Setthemitergaugeto90˚,thenplaceonefaceof

the workpiece firmly against the miter gauge.

3. Turn the sander ON, then ease the workpiece into

the left half of the sanding disc that is spinning

downward, making sure the workpiece is against the

disc, as shown in Figure 12.

4. Move the workpiece side-to-side across the

downward spinning surface of the disc to prevent

build-up on the sanding disc and burning of the

workpiece.

5. Turn the sander OFF.

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.
