BELT SANDING INSIDE CURVES
To belt sand any inside curves, use the rounded sur-

so. Make sure to unplug the sander when making any
adjustments.

2. Power on the sander and allow it to reach full speed
before applying a workpiece.
3. Using both hands, slowly guide the workpiece
against the drum wheel portion of the sanding belt.
Maintain downward pressure on the workpiece against
the table, gently working it along the sanding belt until
the desired curve has been created (Fig. L).
CHANGING SANDING BELTS

the machine from its power source and slide the belt
tensioning lever (Fig. M) to the right to release the ten-
sion. Remove the sanding belt and put on the grit of
your choice before re-tightening the belt tensioning
lever.
