SURFACING OR EDGE SANDING WITH SANDING BELT
When surfacing (Fig. 44) or edge sanding (Fig. 45), place the sanding arm in the horizontal position and use the table
(A) Fig. 44 and Fig. 45 to keep the workpiece in place. Hold the workpiece firmly and keep your fingers away from the
sanding belt. Place the end of the workpiece against the table and move the workpiece evenly across the sanding belt.
Apply only enough pressure to allow the sanding belt to remove material. Use extra caution when sanding very thin
pieces.
POSITION THE EDGE OF THE TABLE (A) FIG. 44 A MAXIMUM OF 1/16" AWAY FROM THE
SANDING BELT (B) TO AVOID TRAPPING THE WORKPIECE OR YOUR FINGERS BETWEEN THE
TABLE AND THE SANDING BELT.
