END SANDING WITH THE DISC
When sanding the ends of narrow workpieces, use the
sanding disc as shown in Fig. 62.
You must position the edge of the table a maximum of 1/16" away from the sanding belt to avoid
trapping the workpiece or your fingers between the table and the sanding belt.

block with the diameter of the circle shown on the scale. Tighten the screw in the stop block with a 5/32" hex
wrench (C) to hold the block in place.
2. Insert the guide pin (D) Fig. 64 in the center of the over-sized rough cut circle (E).
3. Insert the guide pin (D) Fig. 64 into the slot (F) of the disc sander table. Rotate the workpiece (E) Fig. 65.

tightening the two screws.
