With the machine in horizontal position, start by attaching the lower guard to the quill housing. Tighten it securely using the 5/32" Allen Wrench.
Open the two halves of the guard to their widest point, then lock
the guard in this position.

Next, attach the steel sanding disc to the spindle and use your
5/32" Allen Wrench to tighten it securely in position.
Install Sanding Disc
Finally, position the table carriage so the edge of your work table is no farther than 1/8" away from the sanding disc if you will NOT be using the quill to feed the disc into your workpiece.
If you WILL be using the quill to feed the disc
into the workpiece, this distance should be 1/2".
Position Work Table
Adjust the table height until its top surface is just above the
disc centerline... and lock it into this position.
