Before beginning a job, make sure
that the Belt is on-center. If the Belt
is not centered on the Sander turn
the Adjusting Knob (56) until it is on-

comes worn, it will have to be re-
placed. Always turn the tool off and
unplug it before changing the Belt.
Pull out the Belt Release Lever. Re-
move the old Belt and replace with a
