aDJusting Belt tracking
The belt tracking adjustment
1.
was set at the factory, so the belt
should run true on its pulleys.
If, however, the belt does run to
one side or the other, or
if
you’ve
just installed a new belt, you can
adjust the track using the tracking
knob (19).
Stand at the left side of the
2.
machine, on the far side from the
“on/off’ switch. Turn the tracking
knob clockwise to move the belt
away from you (your right when
standing in front). Turn the knob
counterclockwise to move the
belt closer to you (your left from
the front). This operation usually
needs only a very slight turn of the
tracking knob.
use OF tHe BackstOp
The backstop (26) is made of
1.
heavy gauge steel to support the
workpiece you’re sanding. The
backstop should be no more than
1/16” away from the back of the
sanding belt.
If the backstop needs adjustment,
2.
there are two bolts (24) and
two washers (25) which hold
the backstop in place. To move
the backstop closer to the belt,
simply loosen these and move the
backstop.
For some operations, such
3.
as polishing or strapping, it’s
advisable to remove the backstop
entirely by unscrewing the two
bolts, two washers, and the
backstop itself.
