Dayton 6X48 Belt Sander
I picked up a Dayton 6X48 belt sander at a garage sale recently. It's in
great shape but short the table. The sander looks exactly like my neighbors Craftsman and uses the same cam type adjustment for the belt but the fittings are metric and the shaft that supports the table is just a hair smaller than the Craftsman. I could drill/bore out the casting to use a Craftsman table but would rather not if I could locate metric table mounting hardware. I checked the Granger web site but didn't see any thing related to ordering parts. Does anyone know where I might find parts for this critter??? Does Dayton have a web site?? Rob Mills ~~ |

Rob Mills ~~ The repair parts link is at the top of the page at www.grainger.com When you follow the link, if you have the model # of your grinder, you will be able to enter it and maybe bring up a parts diagram online. They also have a toll free number 1-800-323-0620 for their spare parts operation. -- Larry Wasserman Baltimore, Maryland |

wrote in message ... if you have the model # Thanks, just tried it and came up empty. Guess the sander is too old, too bad as it doesn't look as if it's been used very much. Oh well, I probably wouldn't use the disk end very much anyway. Thanks, Rob Mills |

Thanks, Rob Mills Don't give up because of the web page. Give Grainger a call on Monday. They are usually pretty good about parts. |

Thanks, Rob Mills I have an old model Dayton floor model drill press. I e-mailed them with the info on the press and in about 3 days I received a .tif atachment from them with an apology for taking so long. Can't beat that. Virgle |
