OPERATION
SAFETY LOCK SWITCH
Remove the yellow tab of the ON/OFF switch to prevent the
tool from being switched on. Reinsert to yellow tab and push to
click into place. The ON/OFF switch is functional again.
ADJUST THE SANDING BELT TRACKING
1. Quickly turn the power ON and then OFF while watching
the end of the belt jutting out from the base. Adjust the
tracking if the belt slides towards the front or rear.
2. Move the tracking control knob (G) a 1/4 turn. Move
downward if the belt moved to the front. Move upward if
the belt slid towards the rear.
3. Repeat steps 1 and 2 until the tracking is correct. You may
need to reduce to a 1/8 turn to refine the tracking.
ADJUST PLATFORM ANGLE
Reposition the belt sander from horizontal to 90º vertical, based on
the work being done. Ensure you are able to work comfortably at
the chosen angle to avoid fatigue and injury.
1. Insert the 6 mm hex key into the bolt on the rear of the belt
sander platform and loosen.
2. Raise or lower the platform until it has reached the
desired angle.
3. Tighten the bolt again to secure the platform in place.
4. Replace the work guard with the work table when sanding
with the platform at an angle.
SANDING DISC
1. The sanding disc rotates counterclockwise. Place the
workpiece on the work table and slowly push it into the left
side of the sanding disc. This will prevent a kickback.
