Conveyor Belt
The conveyor belt tension and tracking adjust-
ments are controlled by the adjustment bolts
located at each end of the front and rear convey-
or rollers. If the conveyor belt is too loose or
tracks off to one side, adjust as follows:
1. If the conveyor belt is slipping, turn both
infeed
adjustment bolts counter-clockwise.
See Figure 16.

Always make adjustments at the infeed end
to avoid re-adjusting conveyor drive chain.
Conveyor belt tracking adjustments must be
made while the conveyor belt is running.
Use extreme care to ensure that clothing,
hair or jewelry is kept safely away from mov-
ing parts.
2. If the conveyor belt tracks toward the right
side, turn the adjustment bolt located at the
infeed right corner. Turning this bolt counter-
clockwise will make the sanding belt move to
the left.
3. After you have made the adjustment, run the
machine for approximately 15 minutes to
observe the tracking adjustment you made.
Be patient, the belt tracks slow.
4. If the conveyor belt tracks too far to the left,
loosen the adjustment bolt. Turning this bolt
clockwise will move the sanding belt to the
right.
