Remove the Sanding Belt.
Place the new Sanding Belt on the three pulleys. Center the Sanding Belt on the pul-
leys.
Tighten the Sanding Belt by turning the Tension Handle clockwise until the Back Pul-
ley (14) appears centered. Belt tracking adjustments are made by slightly turning this
knob as needed. See above.
Replace the Side Cover and Cover Knob.
Adjusting the sanding belt tracking
Turn the Belt Sander on.
Look at the Belt (5) through the back of the Spark Cover (43). If it is riding on the center
of the upper Pulley (14) the tracking is correct and no further adjustment is required.
If the Belt rides to the left, turn the Tension Handle (37) to the left until the Belt is cen-
tered.
If the Belt rides to the right, turn the Tension Handle gradually to the right until the Belt
is centered.
Adjustment of belt support
The Belt Support (20) is made of heavy gauge steel to support or back the Sanding
Belt while sanding. It should be adjusted to no more than 1/16” away from the back of the
Sanding Belt.
caution:
Do not sand stock that is too small to be safely supported or held. Such pieces
should be sanded by hand.
Remove the Table (29) by removing the Screw (9) as shown below.
Loosen the two Bolts (22) on the Belt Support (20).
Adjust the Belt Support to no more than 1/16” away from the back of the Sanding
Belt.
Tighten the two Bolts on the Belt Support.
