Storing a Belt Sander

Once you are finished your project (or if you’re simply retiring for the evening), be sure to unplug your belt sander.  Before storing the sander, remove and empty the dust bag.  Once you’ve replaced the dust bag, wrap the power cable loosely around the front and rear handles.  Make sure you don’t wrap the cable too tightly because you don’t want to cause any damage to it.  Locate a cool, dry place in your shop or garage, and store your belt sander until you are ready to use it again.
