Installing or Changing Accessories – Sanding Belts
WARNING! Turn the power off and remove the plug from the outlet before changing the
accessories.
Removal:
1. Slide tension lever to the right to release the belt tension.
2. Slide the used sanding belt off of the rotational mechanism.
Installation:
1. Slide new belt over the belt rotational mechanism – sanding drums. Ensure the belt is centred
on both drums (ends of mechanism).
2. Slide the tension lever to the left to apply tension to the belt.
3. Before using, check belt tracking as described in “Belt Tracking” section, and adjust as
necessary.
Belt Tracking
The belt-tracking adjustment is set at the factory so that the abrasive belt will run true on the drums.
If, however, the belt should track to one side or the other, an adjustment can be made by turning the
tracking knob, which is located on the front right-hand side of the machine. Turning the knob clockwise
will cause the belt to track to the right (towards the disc sander mechanism). Turning the knob counter-
clockwise will cause the belt to track to the left side of the machine.
