Figure 14. Belt sanding.
Belt sanding allows you to sand the flat surface
of a workpiece.
To perform belt sanding operations:
1. Turn the power ON and allow the sander to
reach full speed.
2. Place the workpiece against the surface of
the sanding belt. Hold the workpiece firmly
with both hands but keep fingers away from
the sanding surface as shown in
Figure 14.
3. Move the workpiece across the surface of
the belt for even belt wear.
4. Use the back stop to prevent the workpiece
from being thrown off by the rotation of the
sanding belt.
Belt Sanding
Never sand the short side of any workpiece
with the belt sander. This carries a high
risk of kickback and serious personal
injury!
