Shopsmith Belt Sander 555355 For All Mark V's & Mark 7. W/ Manual. Pristine.

Description: Save time and Money by using One of Our Most Versatile Tools - The 6” x 48” Shopsmith Belt Sander (555355) Few tools will save you more work and time than a Stationary Belt Sander. Its straight-line action removes stock quickly and easily, then smooths surfaces and edges to a glass like surface by changing to a fine grit belt. What You Will Want to Do with Your New Shopsmith Belt Sander: Belt sanders are the ideal tool for smoothing the surfaces and edges of both narrow and wide boards as well as component assemblies. You'll use it to make easy work of home shop sanding jobs such as: • Removing unsightly mill marks from sawn stock • Sanding bevels, miters and other cuts while using the table and Miter Gauge to maintain a precise angle or size • Contour sanding odd-shaped workpieces on the back side of the belt (which runs free without a back-up plate) • Sanding protruding joinery (finger laps, lap joints, mortise-and-tenons, dovetails, etc.) flush with workpiece edges or surfaces • Sanding small or unusually-shaped parts that may be difficult or impossible to hold for sanding with hand-held power sanders • Sanding Paint from the surfaces of refinishing projects When you want to remove stock quickly, sanding across the grain or with the grain, use a coarse belt. Use the Shopsmith Belt Sander with a medium belt when you want to smooth the end of a piece of stock or sand the face or edge with the grain. In fact, thanks to its straight-line cutting action, you can produce surfaces, edges or ends that are smooth as glass and straight as an arrow by simply changing to a fine grit belt. The accuracy is built-in to this machine with a heavy duty Steel back-up Platen, a tilting Cast Iron support table with Miter Gauge Slot. When you need true 90° edges, position the worktable along the side of the belt so its surface is 90° to the belt surface and then use the table as a precision rip fence-type guide. When you need precise, 2-way 90° corners, position the worktable across the belt with its surface 90° to the belt surface and then use the table as a precision back-up to maintain the angle of the stock during sanding and lock in the Miter Gauge. When you need precise, 3-way 90° corners just use your belt sander's table slot to bring your MARK miter gauge, locked in the table slot into the equation, for more control. Even compound angles can be sander with this set-up! As with all Shopsmith Special Purpose Tools, your Belt Sander offers a number of great features and accessories to help you make everything you make - BETTER! MARK or Stand Mount -- Every Shopsmith Special Purpose Tool offers the option of mounting and powering it with your Shopsmith - or with its own, individual, motorized stand. 6" x 9" Support Table -- Tilts and locks into position to control sanding angles and to act as a back-up during precise operations. It may be used across the belt, parallel to it on either side or at any angle for support when surfacing or edging stock. Your MARK's Miter Gauge may be used with the table for added control. Automatic Belt Tensioning and Tracking -- Just twist the tensioning knob until it clicks to release the tension for belt changes. Then, depress the knob release lever and everything snaps back to normal belt tension automatically. No tension settings required. Special high-crown idler drum helps to keep the belt on-track at all times, without the need for constant adjustments. Free-Running Belt on Back Side -- Since the back side of the belt has no back-up plate, it will flex and give to match the external contours of workpieces. Built-In Dust Collection Port -- 2-1/2" dust collection port helps you capture the fine dust created by your belt sander before it gets into your shop environment. 2-1/2" Dust Collection Elbow allows you to position the belt sander vertical, horizontal or in between without kinking the hose. Auxiliary Power Shaft -- 5/8" shaft extends from the drive roller to accept the Shopsmith Drum Sander (505552). Or, use your Shopsmith 1/4" Router Chuck to hold our small drum sanders.
