minals of plugs when installing or removing the
plug to or from the outlet.
WARNING: If not properly grounded this power
tool can cause an electrical shock, particularly
when used in damp locations close to plumbing. If
an electrical shock occurs there is the potential of
a secondary hazard such as your hands contacting
the sanding surface.
If power cord is worn or cut, or damaged in any way,
have it replaced immediately.
If your unit is for use on 110-120 volts, and has a plug
that looks like below.
This plug requires a mating 3-conductor grounded type
outlet as shown.

MOUNTING BELT AND DISC SANDER
TO WORKBENCH
If belt and disc sander is to be used in a permanent
location, it should be fastened securely to a firm sup-
porting surface such as a workbench. A 5/16" bolt, flat-
washer, Iockwasher, and hex nut (not included) should
be used at each mounting hole to secure the belt disc
sander to the workbench.
If mounting to a workbench, holes should be drilled
through supporting surface of the workbench as follows:
1. Set the belt disc sander on the workbench in the
exact position where it is to be mounted,
2, Push a pencil through one of the mounting holes
and place a mark on the workbench that marks the
center of the mounting hole opening. Mark the other
three mounting hotes using the same method.
SPECIAL NOTE: Make sure the pencil marks are
placed very near the center of the mounting hole
openings,
WARNING: Check under workbench before drilling
holes to make sure electrical wires, gas pipes, etc.,
will not be hit by drill bit.
3. Remove the belt disc sander from the workbench.
Drill four 3/8" diameter holes using the pencil marks
as the center of the drilled holes.
SPECIAL NOTE: It is highly recommended that you
place a soft foam pad between your belt disc sander
and workbench. The use of this pad will reduce noise
and vibration.
4. Place the belt disc sander back on the workbench.
Align the mounting holes in the sander with the
drilled holes in the workbench.
MOUNTING HOLES
.
Insert four 5/16" bolts through the mounting holes
and through the dritled holes in the workbench.
6,
Place a 5/16" flat washer, 5116" lockwasher, and a
5/16" hex nut on the bolt and tighten,
SPECIAL NOTE: Do not overtighten mounting
bolts - leave some cushion in the foam pad for ab-
sorbing noise and vibration.

7. If you prefer to mount your sander to a leg set we
recommend the leg set for bench top tools which is
available through Sears Retail or Catalog Stores,
The number of this leg set is 9-22244. This leg set
is an optional accessory and instructions to mount
the belt and disc sander to this leg set are included
in the leg set package.
ALTERNATE MOUNTING METHOD
An alternate method of mounting the belt and disc san-
der is to fasten the sander to a mounting board. The
board should be of sufficient size to avoid tipping of
sander while in use. Any good grade of plywood or
ch_pboard with a 3/4" minimum thickness is recom-
mended. (Thinner chipboard can break.)
1, Follow instructions for mounting sander to work-
bench, substituting a board 18" X 24" minimum size
in place of the workbench.
