Replacing the Sanding Pad and the Belt
(Fig. H)
Your sander is equipped with a replaceable belt
11
which
is located between the sanding pad

body. It is designed to control the pad speed while the unit
is off the work surface. The belt and the sanding pad are
designed to be consumable parts and will occasionally need
to be replaced. The sanding pad needs replacement when
signs of wear become evident. Replacement of the belt is
necessary when the pad speed increases very dramatically
when the unit is lifted from the work surface. These parts are
available at extra cost from your local dealer or authorized
service center.
