ASSEMBLY
Always ensure that the tool is switched off and
disconnected from the power supply before making
any adjustments or installing or removing spindles.
BENCH MOUNTING
When mounting the spindle sander in a permanent
position ensure that is secured to a rigid work surface.
• Use the holes in the base of the spindle sander as a
template to mark and drill four holes in your intended
mounting surface (ie. workbench). Secure the spindle
sander into position using large bolts, washers and
nuts (not supplied)
• If the spindle sander is intended to be portable, fix a
board to the base which can be easily clamped and
removed from various
mounting surfaces
• Ensure bolts are long
enough to penetrate
the workbench or board
sufficiently for a secure fix
DUST EXTRACTION
It is recommended that the
spindle sander is used with a dust extraction system for a
cleaner and safer work environment.
1. Attach the hose from the dust extraction system to the
Dust Extraction Port (13) and ensure it is secure
2. For greater efficiency, activate the dust extraction
system before turning on the spindle sander
SELECTING A TABLE INSERT
Failure to use the correct table insert with its matching
sanding sleeve could result in pinched fingers or the
workpiece being pulled down between the table insert and
the sanding sleeve.
Use the below chart as a guide to choosing table inserts
and sanding sleeves.
