NOTICE  
Standard Safety Instructions  
1. Thoroughly read the instruction manual before operating your machine. Learn the applications,  
limitations and potential hazards of this machine. Keep manual in a safe, convenient place for future  
reference.  
2. Keep work area clean and well lit. Clutter and inadequate lighting invite potential hazards.  
3. Ground all tools. If a machine is equipped with a three-prong plug, it must be plugged into a three-  
hole grounded electrical receptacle or grounded extension cord. If you are using an adapter to aid  
in accommodating a two-hole receptacle, screw adapter to a known ground.  
4. Wear eye protection at all times. Use safety glasses with side shields or safety goggles that meet  
the appropriate standards of the American National Standards Institute (ANSI).  
5. Avoid dangerous environments. DO NOT operate this machine in wet or open flame environments.  
Airborne dust particles could cause an explosion and severe fire hazard.  
6. Ensure all guards are securely in place and in working condition.  
7. Make sure the machine power switch is in the OFF position before connecting power to machine.  
8. Keep the work area clean, free of clutter, grease, etc.  
9. Keep children and visitors away. Visitors should be kept at a safe distance while operating unit.  
10.Childproof your workshop with padlocks, master switches or by removing starter keys.  
11.Stop and disconnect the machine when cleaning, adjusting or servicing.

12.DO NOT force tool. The machine will do a safer and better job at the rate for which it was designed.  
13.Use correct tool. DO NOT force machine or attachment to do a job for which it was not designed.  
14.Wear proper apparel. DO NOT wear loose clothing, neck ties, gloves, jewelry, and secure long hair  
away from moving parts.  
15.Remove adjusting keys, rags, and tools. Before turning the machine on, make it a habit to check  
that all adjusting keys and wrenches have been removed.  
16.Avoid using an extension cord. But if you must, examine the extension cord to ensure it is in good  
condition. Use TABLE 1 below to determine the correct length and gauge of extension cord needed  
for your particular needs. The amp rating of the motor can be found on its nameplate. If the motor  
is dual voltage, be sure to use the amp rating for the voltage you will be using. If you use an exten-  
sion cord with an undersized gauge or one that is too long, excessive heat will be generated within  
the circuit, increasing the chance of a fire or damage to the circuit. Always use an extension cord  
that uses a ground pin and connected ground wire. Immediately replace a damaged extension cord.  
17.Keep proper footing and balance at all times and lock mobile base from rolling freely before using  
your machine.  
18. DO NOT leave machine unattended. Wait until it comes to a complete stop before leaving the area.  
19.Perform machine maintenance and care. Follow lubrication and accessory attachment instructions  
in the manual.  
20.Keep machine away from open flame. Operating machines near pilot lights or open flames creates  
a high risk if dust is dispersed in the area. Dust particles and an ignition source may cause an explo-  
sion. DO NOT operate the machine in high-risk areas, including but not limited to, those mentioned  
above.  
21.If at any time you are experiencing difficulties performing the intended operation, stop using the  
machine! Contact our service department or ask a qualified expert how the operation should be per-  
formed.  
22. Habits are hard to break. Develop good habits in your shop and consistent safety practices will  
become second-nature to you.  
TABLE 1.  
Operating this equipment creates the  
Extension Cord Requirements  
potential for flying debris to cause eye  
injury. Always wear safety glasses or gog-  
gles when operating equipment. Everyday  
glasses or reading glasses only have impact  
resistant lenses, they are not safety glasses.  
Be certain the safety glasses you wear meet  
the appropriate standards of the American  
National Standards Institute (ANSI).

Safety Instructions for Your Sander  
USE this and other machinery with caution  
and respect, and always consider safety  
first, as it applies to your individual work-  
ing conditions. Remember, no list of safety  
guidelines can be complete, and every  
shop environment is different. Failure to  
follow guidelines can result in serious per-  
sonal injury, damage to equipment and/or  
poor work results.  
READ and understand this  
entire instruction manual  
before using this machine.  
Serious personal injury  
may occur if safety and  
operational information is  
not understood and fol-  
lowed. DO NOT risk your  
safety by not reading!  
ALWAYS keep bystanders away when sanding.  
ALWAYS secure aprons, clothing, and long hair away from all sander moving parts.  
ALWAYS use a respirator along with a dust collection system when sanding. Dust from some wood  
is toxic, so make sure you research the dangers of the specific species of wood you will sand.  
ALWAYS keep your hands away from the sanding belt and disc during operation.  
ALWAYS wear eye and hearing protection.  
ALWAYS feed the workpiece into the sander using light pressure, so you do not overload  
the sander. Never force the workpiece into the sander.  
ALWAYS shut the sander down, let the belt come to a complete stop, and disconnect  
power or engage applicable safety-lock devices before you service, adjust, trou-  
bleshoot, or leave the machine unattended.  
ALWAYS keep this machine in correct adjustment and properly serviced.  
ALWAYS replace the sandpaper when it is worn, and only use undamaged sandpaper.  
ALWAYS inspect the workpiece for nails, staples, knots, imbedded stones, and other  
material that could be dislodged and thrown from the machine during sanding opera-  
tions.  
NEVER attempt to clear a jammed workpiece while the sander is running.  
NEVER sand if there is any doubt about the stability or integrity of the workpiece.  
NEVER sand more than one workpiece at a time.  
NEVER sand tapered or pointed stock with the point facing the feed direction.  
NEVER leave the machine running unattended.  
NEVER operate the sander without an adequate dust collection system in place and run-  
ning.

110V Operation  
Grounding  
The SHOP FOX® Model W1712 112 HP, 110  
volt motor draws approximately 12 amps.  
Serious injury or fire may  
Make sure you use an outlet with a 15 amp cir-  
cuit breaker or fuse. If other machines may be  
using the same circuit, make sure the circuit,  
circuit breaker, or fuse can carry the total load  
without tripping. If the total amperage load of  
all machines and the sander exceeds the  
occur if you plug this  
machine into a receptacle  
that is not grounded.  
Connect this machine to  
grounded outlets only!  
amperage rating of the circuit breaker or fuse,  
use a different circuit that can carry the load.  
Ground this machine! The electrical cord sup-  
plied with the SHOP FOX® Model W1712  
Sander has a three prong plug for grounded out-  
lets. See Figure 2. If your power receptacle  
does not have a ground pin hole, have the  
receptacle replaced by a qualified electrician,  
or have an appropriate adapter installed and  
grounded properly. NEVER cut the ground pin  
off so your sander plug fits into a non-grounded  
receptacle.  
DO NOT modify an existing low-amperage cir-  
cuit by only replacing the circuit breaker with  
a breaker rated for a higher amperage. The  
breaker and the complete circuit must be  
replaced by a qualified electrician, otherwise  
the wires can overheat and cause a fire.  
Extension Cords  
If you must use an extension cord with the  
Model W1712, please follow these require-  
ments:  
NOTICE  
When using an electrical plug adapter, make  
sure the adapter is grounded.  
Use a cord rated for Standard Service  
(Grade S).  
Remember, an adapter with a grounding wire  
does not guarantee the sander is grounded. A  
ground source must always be verified in the  
electrical circuit within the wall or conduit.  
Use a cord that is 100 feet or less.  
Use a least a 16 gauge cord.  
Use a cord with a ground pin.  
Use an undamaged cord only.

Shop Preparation  
Initial Cleaning  
The exposed and unpainted sander surfaces are  
coated with a waxy oil to prevent rust during  
storage and shipment. DO NOT use chlorine  
based solutions or solvents to remove this waxy  
oil or you will damage the painted surfaces.  
Remove the waxy oil with a solvent based  
degreaser before you use the sander. Always  
follow all usage and safety instructions of the  
product that you are using.  
ONLY ALLOW TRAINED  
PEOPLE in your shop! Make  
sure shop entrances are  
locked and machines are  
correctly turned off with  
lock-out devices when not  
in use. Otherwise, injury  
or death can occur.  
Lighting: Lighting should be bright enough  
to eliminate shadows and prevent eye  
strain.  
DO NOT use flammables  
such as gas or other  
petroleum-based solvents  
to clean your machine.  
These products have low  
flash points and present  
the risk of explosion and  
severe personal injury!  
Working Clearances: Consider your current  
and future shop needs with respect to the  
safe operation of this machine.  
Outlets: Make sure the electrical circuits  
have the capacity to handle the amperage  
requirements for your Model W1712. Refer  
to page 8 for more information. Electrical  
outlets should be located near the sander,  
so power or extension cords are clear of  
high-traffic areas.  
DO NOT smoke while  
using cleaning solvents.  
Smoking may cause  
explosion or risk of fire  
when exposed to these  
products!  
Dust Collection  
Some wood dust may  
cause allergic reactions  
or respiratory illness.  
Use a dust collection sys-  
tem and respirator in  
your shop to help protect  
yourself from these long-  
term hazards.  
ALWAYS work in a well  
ventilated area when  
using solvents with  
fumes, and keep away  
from any potential igni-  
tion sources (pilot  
lights). Most solvents  
used to clean machinery  
are toxic when inhaled  
or ingested. Always dis-  
pose of waste rags in a  
sealed container to  
make sure they do not  
cause fire or environ-  
mental hazards.  
For information on the correct dust collection  
components for sanders, contact your  
Woodstock International dealer for a copy of  
the Dust Collection Basics handbook and avail-  
able accessories.

piratory problems. Wear  
a respirator in addition  
to using a dust collector.  
• If there are any unusual noises or vibra-  
tions, STOP the sander immediately by  
pushing the paddle switch down.  
4. Unplug the sander and investigate the  
source of the noise or vibration. DO NOT  
make any adjustments to the sander while  
it is plugged in. The sander should not be  
run any further until the problems are cor-  
rected.

Power Switch  
The power switch on the SHOP FOX® Model  
W1712 not only starts and stops the sander,  
but features a safety lockout key. When the  
key is removed, as shown in Figure 15, the  
sander is disabled to prevent accidental start  
up.  
Belt/Disc Selection  
The SHOP FOX® Model W1712 accepts 6" x 48"  
sanding belts and 12" discs. There are a large  
variety of sanding belts and discs to choose  
from. We recommend Aluminum Oxide belts  
and discs for standard sanding purposes. Table  
2 shows abrasive types and grit numbers.  
Figure 15. Safety lockout key removed.

As a general rule of thumb, progressively  
increase the grit number you use without jump-  
ing more than 50 grit sizes at one time.

Miter Sanding  
Very Fine  
The most efficient way to get a perfect miter  
is to cut the workpiece slightly long and sand it  
to the desired dimension. Miter sanding can be  
done easily with the miter gauge:  
To perform miter sanding operations:  
1. Loosen the knob on the miter gauge and  
adjust the angle to the desired point.  
Tighten the knob.  
2. Slide the miter gauge into its slot in the  
table to steady your workpiece at the cor-  
rect angle. Note—The miter gauge can be  
used in either direction in the slot to  
achieve the proper relation of the work-  
piece to the disc.  
Figure 16. Miter sanding operation.  
3. Hold the workpiece and miter gauge firmly  
as shown in Figure 16.

Disc Sanding  
To start disc sanding operations, do these  
steps:  
1. UNPLUG THE SANDER!  
2. Set the table tilt angle to the desired posi-  
tion by loosening the table lock knobs.  
Figure 17 shows the table at 45˚.  
3. Plug the sander into the power supply.  
4. Start the sander.  
Figure 17. Table tilt set at 45˚.  
5. Hold the workpiece firmly in both hands as  
shown in Figure 18. Note— Always keep  
the workpiece on the side of the wheel  
that is rotating down toward the table.  
This will keep the workpiece from flying  
out of your hands from the rotational  
forces.  
Flat Sanding  
Flat sanding operations can be performed with  
the sanding belt in the vertical position or hori-  
zontal position.  
Figure 18. Disc sanding.

vertical, do these steps:  
1. UNPLUG THE SANDER!  
2. Make sure the sanding table is square to  
the belt.  
3. Plug the sander into the power supply.  
4. Start the sander.  
5. Hold the workpiece firmly as shown in  
Figure 19.

MAINTENANCE  
General  
To ensure optimum performance from your  
sander, make a habit of inspecting it before  
each use. Check for the following conditions  
and repair or replace when necessary:  
MAKE SURE that your  
machine is unplugged  
during any maintenance  
procedures except  
where instructed other-  
wise! If this warning is  
ignored, serious per-  
sonal injury may occur.  
Loose mounting bolts.  
Worn switch.  
Worn or damaged cords and plugs.  
Any other condition that could hamper the  
safe operation of this machine.  
Table And Base  
Tables can be kept rust-free with regular appli-  
cations of products like SLIPIT®. For long term  
storage you may want to consider products like  
Boeshield T-9™.  
Sanding Surfaces  
Figure 27. Cleaning the sanding belt with  
PRO STICK®.  
Regularly clean your sanding belt and disc as  
sawdust builds up in the grit. Clean the sanding  
belts and discs with PRO STICK® belt cleaners  
as shown in Figure 27. Cleaning built-up saw-  
dust will prolong the life of your sanding belts  
and discs.
