The following instructions follow the rst option listed above.
INSTALLING THE SANDING BELT FENCES
The sander includes 2 fences for use with the sanding
belt. The small Fence/Platen (Part #56, 7-1/4” x
1-3/8”) attaches directly to the sanding Belt Frame
(#52), and is used for supporting small items being
sanded.
The larger Fence/Platen (#55, 8-3/16” x 2-3/16”)
attaches onto the small fence. It gives a larger support
surface for sanding large work pieces.
NOTE: These parts may be pre-assembled at the time
of delivery. If not, follow the following parts assembly:
1. Install the small Fence onto the sanding Belt
Frame with the 4 Hex Screws and washers (#27, 58).

2. Insert two star-head Screws (#54) through the
countersunk holes in the large Fence and install the
Knobs (#57) on their threaded ends. (Washers shown
in FIG. 3 are optional, not included with sander).

Four rubber Foot Pads (#29) are supplied to protect
