General Instructions for 230V Machines the disc, put in a ‘plastic’ bag and store in a warm dry place. With regard to the disc, this advice is on practical if you have upgraded to a Velcro fastening method. Also ensure that spare belts/discs are not stored in damp conditions. Good Working Practices/Safety The following suggestions will enable you to observe good working practices, keep yourself and fellow workers safe and maintain your tools and equipment in good working order.
Specific to Sanding Machines consideration should be given to the removal of rings and wristwatches if these are liable to be a ‘snag’ hazard. Do not press too heavily against the sanding surface, all this will do is slow the sander down. Remember, sanders work by removing small particles of material quickly and heavy pressure works adversely to the cutting process. Further, it will accelerate the rate of ‘clogging’ of the abrasive surfaces, rendering the machine less efficient.

Assembly Step 7 Step 9 E B C 6 A B C Lower the disc sander on top of the stand and line up the holes, using the four bolt (A) washer (B) and Nuts (C) secure the sander to the stand Step 8 Step 10 Setting up NOTE: Before using your disc sander you need to check that the table is perpendicular by using a 90˚ square. Place a 90˚ square on the sanding disc table, see fig 03 and check that the table is perpendicular to the sanding disc.
Setting up Fig 04 Fig 07 a b Using a square adjust the table until it is set to 90˚ to the disc. Re-tighten the hex bolts. Fig 05 Scale Pointer Now the table is set correctly you may have to adjust the pointer on the scale so it’s set to (0˚) degrees. Loosen the Phillips screw and adjust until correct, re-tighten the screw. (see fig 06) c d Fig 08 e screw stops (e) so the table does not come into contact with the sanding disc, tighten the nuts to lock the table stops in position.
Setting up Remove all tools away for the machine, Switch on, wait until the machine has reached full speed and check that the disc sander is running properly ie, no vibration or rattling for example. If not, switch off, wait for the machine to come to a complete stop, disconnect the sander and check all fixing to make sure they are tight. Reconnect, switch on and check again. If everything is fine, switch off and wait until the machine has come to a complete stop.

Operating Instructions Rise and Full Control Assembly Pre-set/Index system The table on this sander remains level whilst the whole motor and disc arrangement tilts. This allows your work to stay level, improving accuracy and safety. The disc can be tilted from -5° to + 45°, enabling many tasks to be undertaken. The disc angles are adjusted by a rack and pinion arrangement, plus there is a quick action index system enabling you pre select angles from -5, 0, 15, 22.5, 30 & 45°.
Operating Instructions Variable Disc Speed Fig 17 The motor on this machine is a 750W DC brush type unit, electronically controlled to give a disc speed of between 1,000-3,000rpm. This means that you can choose the disc speed that is right for the job, whatever the material. Disc speed is maintained electronically to compensate for work loads. Manual Disc Brake A manual disc brake is fitted to allow the disc to be stopped quickly if required.
Changing the Abrasive Disc sanding disc and evenly press down, making sure there are no wrinkles or air bubbles. (see figs 22-23) Fig 20 6. Replace the disc guard, extraction moulding and table.
