machine, tighten (add tension) to the tracking adjustment screw on that
side of the machine.
NOTE: Due to the width of the conveyor feed belt, tracking adjustments
may not become apparent immediately! Increase the speed of the
conveyor feed belt to hasten the effects of your adjustments. Make small
measured corrections of approximately 1/4 turn increments and evaluate
the results. RE-adjust as necessary until the proper tracking solution is
found.

Tighten the side opposite the desired tracking direction. For example,
tighten the right side tracking adjustment to make the conveyor feed belt

approximately 0.4mm per 1/4 turn in either direction. One complete turn is
1.6mm. Depth settings can be measured using the depth indicator scale
located on the right side of the drum support frame.
NOTE: Depth settings used during surface sanding of stock are adjusted
by considering several variables. The hardness of the material, the width
