The Jet 708595 JSG-96 Benchtop Sander is a remarkable tool that combines a 9-inch disc and a 6-inch by 48-inch belt, offering outstanding versatility for your workshop. Despite its small and compact design, this sander packs an industrial 3/4 HP punch, taking up minimal space on your workbench. It comes with a quick-release belt tension lever, making belt changes a breeze, and a quick-lock dust cover for fast disc swaps. The large cast iron table has preset stops at 90° and 45°, allowing you to use the belt sander vertically, horizontally, or at any angle in between. The exclusive dual thumbscrew belt tracking adjustment lock keeps the belt precisely on track during operation. The graphite-covered steel platen runs cooler, which extends both the machine's and the belt's lifespan. The specially designed belt guard enables full utilization of the 6-inch belt's width and length. The rubber-coated drive drum provides a better grip on the sanding belt, reducing slippage. The tracking adjustment knob with a quick-lock handle ensures the belt stays on course. There's a single 4-inch dust port at the back of the base that effectively collects dust from both the belt and the disc. The powerful 3/4HP motor can easily handle the toughest sanding tasks.
