ASSEMBLY -11- Spindle Sander Base 1 Spindle Sander Table 1 Sanding Spindles 10 Table Inserts 4 Spindle Wrench 1 Hardware Bag 1 Item Q t y . The following is a description of the components shipped with the SHOP FOX ® W1688. We recommended that the components be laid out in a similar fashion to those in Figure 3 .
ASSEMBLY -12- Clean Up The exposed, unpainted surfaces of the machine have been coated with an oil to prevent rust during shipment. This oil needs to be removed before operation. Use a solvent based degreaser to remove the oil. Never use flammables such as gas or other petro- leum-based solvents to clean your machine.
ASSEMBLY -13- General The main components of the SHOP FOX ® W1686 are assembled at the factory; however, some assembly is required. Table/Trunnion To attach the table/trunnion assembly: 1. With the assistance of a helper, carefully lift the table/trunnion assembly onto the top of the sander base.
ASSEMBLY -14- Dust Port Connect a dust collector to the 4" dust port on the back of the sander as shown in Figure 5 . If you do not have a dust collection system, you can buy adapters to allow hook-up to a shop vac- uum. Although not as adequate as a dust collec- tor, a shop vacuum will help reduce the amount of uncontained dust and debris.
ASSEMBLY -15- Sanding Spindle The Model W1686 is supplied with ten rubber sanding spindles. Use the larger diameter spin- dles for sanding large sweeping curves and the smaller spindles for sanding more intricate curves. When not in use, the spindles are stored on racks located on each side of the machine base as shown in Figure 6 .
ASSEMBLY -16- Figure 9. (Table removed for clarity only) Use an adjustable wrench to hold the jam nuts stationary during spindle removal. Figure 10. (Table removed for clarity only) Use the supplied spindle wrench to loosen the retainer nut on the base of the spindle while holding the adjustable wrench.
ASSEMBLY -17- Sanding Sleeve The Model W1686 is supplied with 10 sanding sleeves. Use coarse (low #) grits for fast materi- al removal and a rough finish.
ASSEMBLY -18- Table Insert The Model W1686 is supplied with three differ- ent sized table inserts. The inserts are designed to reduce the gap between the spindle and the table opening. The hole in each insert is oblong to allow clearance when the table is in the tilt- ed position.
ADJUSTMENTS -19- ADJUSTMENTS Figure 15. Loosen the locking handles on the trunnions. Locking Handle (1 of 2) Retainer Screw Positive Stop Bolt There is a positive stop bolt located under the back right-hand side of the table. When adjust- ed correctly, this stop allows the table to be returned square to the spindle with speed and accuracy.
ADJUSTMENTS -20- NOTICE When tilting the table towards the back of the machine, the positive stop bolt must be removed completely. Be sure to recalibrate the positive stop bolt whenever it is moved or removed. Figure 17. Use a machinist square to adjust the table square to the spindle.
OPERATIONS -21- OPERATIONS Test Run Once assembly is complete, the machine is ready for a test run. The purpose of a test run is to identify any unusual noises and vibrations. To test run the machine: 1. Turn the machine on. Be sure to have your finger poised to turn the machine off if there is a problem.
OPERATIONS -22- NOTICE Frequent cleaning can go a long way towards getting the most life from your sanding sleeves. Refer to the Maintenance section for complete instructions on cleaning sanding sleeves. Figure 18. The Model W1686 is best suited for smoothing the curved cuts made by a band- saw or jigsaw.
OPERATIONS -23- Bevel Sanding Procedures Adjust the table to the desired angle and secure it into position with the trunnion lock handles as shown in Figure 19 . With the sander turned off, rotate the spindle by hand to ensure it does not make contact with the table insert.
MAINTENANCE -24- MAINTENANCE General Regular periodic maintenance on your Model W1686 will ensure its optimum performance. Make a habit of inspecting your machine each time you use it. Check for the following condi- tions and repair or replace when necessary.
MAINTENANCE -25- Sanding Sleeves As sanding sleeves are used, they will quickly become "loaded" with saw dust. If not removed, this saw dust will harden on the abrasive sur- face, rendering the sleeve useless.
