Utilizing many of the characteristics of the Vega Industrial Model Edge Sander, the Utility Model UEBS-6 offers the smaller shop or advanced woodworker a serious sanding machine at a very reasonable cost. It features a very large sanding capacity for its price range, ideal sanding speed and many more features making it an outstanding value.
All Vega Edge Belt Sanders are thoughtfully designed to provide greater productivity and durability at a truly realistic price. Compare them to any on the market.
MOTOR AND PULLEY
(produces ideal belt speed)
The Utility Model UEBS-6 features a 1 ½ horsepower, single phase 110 volt totally enclosed, fan cooled, high quality American made motor. The dynamically balanced motor pulley is 4"
diameter steel, which has been machined on the outside for minimum runout. The motor and pulley combination produces a belt speed of 4000 feet per minute, which according to abrasive
experts produces the fastest cut, best finish, and long belt life. A top mounted switch provides easy on/off control.
PEDESTAL DESIGN
The design of the Vega Edge Belt Sanders provide maximum structural strength in combination with great access to the sanding platten and pleasing aesthetics. This design also makes
cleaning around the machine fast and easy.
TABLE SUPPORT BRACKET
The main table support brackets allow the table to be tilted up 15 and down 48 degrees by loosening the secure tee handles. The table can be quickly removed (without the use of
wrenches), and can be adjusted vertically to provide a 4" bias for belt utilization. The table also adjusts in and out to provide the desired belt clearance.
LARGE SANDING CAPACITY
The large platten of this sander is 6" x 48" which rivals very large industrial sanders! Why? One of the most important functions of an edge sander is to sand long surfaces quickly and
accurately. This is at best difficult with shorter platens. Combined with the large platten the 6" wide sanding belt provides greater area for more economical abrasive use
and wider work surface.
