W1751 25" Wide-Belt Sander
SET UP
• Floor Load: Your sander weighs 1060 lbs
and has a 39" X 29" footprint. Some floors
may require additional bracing to support
both machine and operator.
• Working Clearances: Consider existing and
anticipated needs, size of material to be
processed through the machine, and space
for auxiliary stands, work tables or other
machinery when establishing a location for
your sander
.
• Lighting: Lighting should be bright enough
to eliminate shadow and prevent eye strain.
• Electrical: Electrical circuits must be
dedicated or large enough to handle
amperage requirements. Outlets must be
located near each machine, so power or
extension cords are clear of high-traffic
areas. Follow local electrical codes for
proper installation of new lighting, outlets,
or circuits.

Cleaning Machine
The upper sanding drum of your sander is
coated with a waxy grease that protects it from
corrosion during shipment. Clean this grease off
with a solvent cleaner or citrus-based degreas
-
er. DO NOT use chlorine-based solvents such as
brake parts cleaner or acetone—if you happen
to splash some onto a painted surface, you will
ruin the finish.
Machine Placement
USE helpers or power
lifting equipment to lift
this wide belt sander.
Otherwise, serious per

sonal injury may occur.
NEVER use gasoline or
other petroleum-based
solvents when cleaning.
Most have low flash
points, which make them
extremely flammable.
A risk of explosion and
burning exists if these
products are used. Serious
personal injury may occur
if this warning is ignored!
ALWAYS work in well-
ventilated areas far from
possible ignition sources
when using solvents to
clean machinery. Many
solvents are toxic when
inhaled or ingested. Use
care when disposing
of waste rags and
towels to be sure they
DO NOT create fire or
environmental hazards.
