Two Sanding Surfaces in One Machine
The JSG-96 combines a 6 x 48-inch belt and a 9-inch disc in one unit. This allows the operator to switch between different sanding techniques without having to move between separate machines.
The long belt is well suited to sanding edges, larger surfaces, shaping, and general stock removal. The disc provides a convenient sanding surface for smaller workpieces, end grain, bevels, and detailed finishing.
This combination makes the JSG-96 a practical choice for workshops where space and equipment flexibility are important.
6 x 48-Inch Belt Sander
The 6 x 48-inch sanding belt provides a large continuous abrasive surface for working on edges and broader surfaces.
The belt assembly can be adjusted to different positions, allowing the operator to select an orientation appropriate for the workpiece. Preset table positions at 90° and 45° help make common sanding setups easier to establish.
A graphite-covered steel platen helps reduce friction during belt operation, while the rubber-coated drive drum provides positive traction.
Adjustable Belt Tracking and Tension
Keeping the sanding belt correctly aligned is important for consistent results. The JSG-96 incorporates dual thumbscrew tracking adjustment to help center the belt during operation.
A quick-release belt tensioning system makes it easier to remove and install sanding belts when changing abrasive grades or replacing worn material.
These features help reduce setup time and make the machine more convenient for shops that frequently change sanding applications.
9-Inch Disc Sander
The integrated 9-inch sanding disc provides a second abrasive surface for controlled sanding and finishing.
Its approximately 12 x 7-1/2-inch table provides stable support for smaller workpieces. The table can be adjusted from approximately 10° upward to 45° downward, allowing the operator to work on bevels and angled surfaces.
A quick-lock dust cover provides access to the disc when abrasive replacement is required.
3/4 HP Motor
The JSG-96 is powered by a 3/4 HP single-phase motor. The belt operates at approximately 2,258 SFPM, while the disc rotates at approximately 1,725 RPM.
This combination provides useful sanding speed for general woodworking, shaping, edge preparation, and finishing applications.
The 115 V power requirement makes the machine convenient for workshops equipped with compatible single-phase electrical service.
Benchtop Design
Unlike floor-standing versions equipped with a dedicated stand, the JSG-96 is designed as a benchtop machine. This configuration allows the user to install it on a sturdy workbench, cabinet, or other suitable support.
The benchtop format can be advantageous for smaller workshops where floor space is limited. The machine can also be positioned at a working height appropriate to the user's setup.
A stable, level supporting surface should be used to help minimize vibration during operation.
Cast-Iron Tables
The JSG-96 uses substantial work tables to provide stable support while sanding.
The belt table measures approximately 11 x 5-1/2 inches, while the disc table measures approximately 12 x 7-1/2 inches. Their adjustable design allows the operator to position the workpiece appropriately for different sanding tasks.
Dust Collection
A 4-inch dust port is provided for connection to a suitable dust collection system. Connecting the sander to appropriate dust extraction can help reduce the amount of sanding debris released into the surrounding workspace.
When sanding wood or other materials that generate airborne particles, use an appropriate dust-collection and respiratory-protection setup based on the material and working environment.

- Edge sanding
- Surface sanding
- Stock removal
- Shaping
- Contour sanding
- Bevel sanding
- End-grain sanding

- Furniture projects
