Sanding belt
Choosing the right sanding belt
Sanding belts are available with different grain sizes (grit). The grain size is indicated
with a number on the reverse of the sanding belt, the higher the number the ner is the
grain size.
Grain size Class Application
40-60 Coarse Removal of paint and varnish, preparation of rough surfaces.
80-120 Medium For face sanding and planning small irregularities.
180-240 Fine Finishing, cleaning plaster and water stain from wood.
Changing/Attaching: (Fig. A, B)
1. Pull the clamping lever for sanding belt (10) outward completely. The sanding
belt (9) is now loose and can be removed by applying even pulling force from both
sides. (Fig. A)
2. Attach a new sanding belt with even pressing force at both sides. Pay attention
that the direction of the arrows on the inside of the sanding belt (9) corresponds
with the rotation direction of the belt sander. The sanding belt (9) should align with
the metal guiding base as shown in Fig. B.

belt should be correctly tensioned now.
Adjustment of belt run (Fig. C, D)
After correct assembly of the sanding belt (9), the belt run should be automatically
centred upon switching on and during the sanding application. If it is not centred, the
belt run should be readjusted.

machine at low speed.
2. Turn the adjustment knob for belt run (6) as instructed in Fig. C and D until the
