MACHINE SET-UP
Preparing the machine for operation
1. Familiarize yourself with the machine. Read all danger,
warning, and caution statements and the Owner's Manual
before operating this machine. If you or your operator cannot
read English, have this manual explained fully before at-
tempting to operate this machine.
2. Remove belt guard ( fi gure 3-a). Position extension over
motor and start thumb screw ( fi gure 3-b). Position drive
belt in lower most set of grooves on motor
pulley as shown in
fi gure 4-a (for the kick-toe
extension with 7" dia. pad.) The upper most set of
grooves are reserved for use with all other attachments. Ten-
sion drive belt, then tighten thumb screws. Rotate pad driver
to inspect position of drive belt in motor pulley and pad driver
belt grooves.
CAUTION: Rapid belt wear will occur if both strands of
the drive belt do not run in their respective
grooves on the pad driver and motor pulley.
3. Install belt guard.
4. Remove screw and abrasive retainer. Center abrasive on
pad and secure with abrasive retainer and screw. (Figure
4-b)
5. Return machine to upright position and tilt machine back
on casters until it comes to rest on the exhaust bracket.
Machine will be in a reclined position. Do not allow machine
to rest on pad especially after use, or compression set may
take place within elastomer on pad. This will create a
fl at
spot and bounce during use.

with hammer and punch to avoid encounter with abrasive. Connect
the supply cable to an appropriately grounded and fused circuit.
WARNING: Bodily injury could occur if power is applied to the machine
with the control switch in the "ON" position. Always verify
that the control switch is in the "OFF" position before
connecting to the power cable.
