Instruction manual Belt Sanders 361,363,360VS,362VS,360,362

TRACKING THE ABRASIVE BELT

To prevent excessive wear on both the sander and belt, NEVER allow the

abrasive belt to rub on the sander frame. To make sure that the belt is tracking

correctly, do the following:

Make sure that the trigger is in the “OFF” position before

connecting the tool to the power circuit.

1. Turn the tool over, rest the tool on

its front handle, and grasp the

rear handle with your left hand .

Rest your ring finger and little

finger on the trigger (Fig. 3).

2. Start the motor by squeezing the

trigger.

3. Turn the belt aligning screw (A)

Fig. 3 in either direction until the

edge of the belt is even with the

outer edge of the rear rubber-

covered pulley. The edge of the belt will extend beyond the edge of the

front pulley.

4. Turn the motor “OFF” and allow the sander to come to a COMPLETE STOP

before turning it right side up.

Depress the dust bag spring clips

(A) Fig. 4, and place the dust bag

spring (A) between the ridges on

the spout (B).

For most efficient operation, empty

the dust bag when it is half full. To

remove, squeeze the dust bag

spring clips (A) and pull the bag

straight up. Unzip the rear of the

bag and shake out the dust. Every

so often, turn the bag inside out and

brush the accumulated dust from

the inside.
