When using the sanding belt in the horizon-
tal position, to perform surface or edge
sanding, the belt worktable (1) must always
be used. Always hold the work piece (2)
firmly, keeping your fingers away from the
sanding belt . Always keep the end of the
work piece against the belt worktable (1)
and move the work evenly across the
sanding belt. Apply only enough pressure
to allow the sanding belt to remove mate-
rial. Use extra caution when sanding very
thin pieces.
