Use and Care Manual

BELT TRACKING
Belt tracking means adjusting the belt in the center of the rollers so that it runs true (does not wander left or right
during operation). The sander has been given a belt tracking adjustment knob (Fig. C - 5). To adjust the belt track-
ing:
1. Remove the upper guard lock knob (Fig. B - 3) and the screws (Fig. B - 4) holding the side cover (belt dust port)
in place. Remove the side cover and set it to the side.
2. Rotate the sanding disc with your hand. This then causes the belt to slowly rotate. Watch to see if it ventures left
or right. If the belt wanders from the belt rollers, use the belt tracking adjustment knob (Fig. C - 5) to adjust the
angle of the rollers. Keep rotating the disk with one hand while turning the belt tracking knob until the belt rides in
the center of the rollers.
3. Once the belt is in the center of the rollers, stop turning the adjustment knob and the disc. Re-install the side
cover and connect the cord to the power source. Turn the sander ON and then quickly OFF to verify that the belt
is riding true in the center of the rollers.
UPPER GUARD
Install the upper bracket (Fig. B - 6) to the belt sanding arm using the lock knob (Fig. B - 3) to secure it in place.

ASSEMBLY AND ADJUSTMENTS
NOTE: Before making any adjustments check that the pow-
er switch is in the OFF position and that the plug is disconnected
from the power source.
SANDING BELT TABLE
This machine is equipped with a tilting table secured by a lock lever.
To install the table:
1. Pass the sanding belt through the slot on the table and position the
table on the machine (Fig. B - 1).
2. Secure the table into position using the lock lever (Fig. B - 2).
DUST PORTS
For optimal dust removal and minimal clean-up, this sander is
equipped with two dust ports: one for the belt and one for the disc.
The sanding belt dust port with the side guard is mounted to the
machine using a lock knob (Fig. B - 3) and three screws/washers
(Fig. B - 4).
The sanding disc dust port attaches to the back of the dust port (Fig.
C - 2) using three screws and washers (Fig. C - 1).
SANDING DISC TABLE
To install the included work table that accompanies the sanding
disc, attach the table (Fig. C - 3) to the sander above the disc dust
chute and secure it using two lock knobs (Fig C - 4 & Fig. B - 5)
from both sides.
