Specific to Sanding Machines

CHECK that the belts or discs are undamaged;

torn edges can pick up on the workpiece and

will cause the medium to tear, often very

rapidly with accompanying sharp flapping

edges.

ALWAYS offer the workpiece to the belt/disc

so that the motion carries the work against the

restraining surface, (i.e. the work stop or the

table, (use the left hand side of the disc).

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.

If you are attempting to sand inside curves

(over the 'tracking drum') do not press at all,

other than to keep the workpiece in contact

with the surface, any pressure could upset the

tracking geometry. As there is no cushioning

effect to the belt passing around the drum,

expect an added vibration and compensate

for it.

Sanding of certain types of timber may make

the fitting of dust extraction mandatory in

order to comply with the directives of the

HSE. However, even if it is not mandatory, it

is strongly recommended that you consider

fitting dust extraction. It will certainly reducethe

level of dust and grit, and as it helps to remove

the waste quicker will certainly prolong the

longevity of the abrasive.

Above all, OBSERVE.... make sure you know

what is happening around you, and USE YOUR

COMMON SENSE.
