1. Be sure AC incoming power matches the DS12 12” disc sander. The DS12 ships standard as
1PH 115V. The motor is dual voltage so it can be wired to 1PH 230V if needed at the motor
junction box. An electrical schematic sticker on the motor indicates the wiring for voltage
changes. CAUTION: IF YOUR NOT FAMILIAR WITH ELECTRICS CONSULT AN
ELECTRICIAN.
2. Disc: The 12” disc uses PSA (pressure sensitive adhesive) discs. Peel back the clear backing
and stick the disc to the aluminum disc holder. Consult your dealer for dierent PSA disc
grits.
