Loaded with innovative features, the Powermatic 31A Belt/Disc
Sander has the power to accomplish even the most demanding tasks.
Its heavy-duty, full cast-iron construction allows both
metalworking and woodworking to be done on the same machine,
saving space and money while maximizing the capabilities of both
abrasive types.
Powerful 1-1/2 Horsepower Motor
The Powermatic 31A is a solid, full-feature sanding machine that
has a 1-1/2 horsepower TEFC (totally enclosed fan cooled) motor
ed within the enclosed base cabinet. The 31A comes wired for
115-volt, 12-amp, one-Ph current, yet it can be converted to use
230-volt, six-amp power for greater versatility.The motor
delivers power to the belt and disc units via a pair of balanced
pulleys and a V-belt. The belt is easily accessible for
tensioning adjustments through a large door on the rear of the
base cabinet.
Fully Welded Base Cabinet for Stability
The fully welded, all-steel enclosed base cabinet measures 20.0 x
27.5 x 17.25 inches (W x H x D), providing a stable platform for
the entire machine in addition to enclosing and protecting the
motor and dust collection chute.
The height of the base cabinet places the disc sanding table 34.5
inches off the floor and the belt (in the horizontal position) to
37 inches. These heights plus the total weight (246 pounds) and
stability of the cabinet make the Powermatic 31A easy and
comfortable to work with.
Cast-Iron Table Provides Ample Workspace
A large 17.25- by 9.0-inch cast-iron table provides a solid,
spacious platform that both supports and stabilizes even the
largest project pieces.
The table tilts up to 45 degrees and is secured by large hand
wheels on either side. A full-sized miter slot accepts the
included miter gauge, making it easy to build specialty jigs.
Versatile, User-Friendly Operation
The Powermatic 31A offers true versatility. First, the belt can
be used in both the horizontal and vertical positions--and just
about any angle in between. The multipurpose cast-iron table
allows you to work at different angles, giving you greater
project flexibility. You can also remove the top guard for
contour sanding jobs.
To help ensure long life and user-friendly operation, the
Powermatic 31A features a four-inch-diameter dust port for
effective dust evacuation to keep your shop and your air cleaner,
improve visibility, and protect components from damaging debris.
At the same time, the cast-iron table with miter gauge slots and
positive stops make setup fast, accurate, and simple for any
angle.
The Powermatic 31A is backed by a five-year warranty.
