Remove the dust port (if already installed)
by removing the screws and washers
securing the dust port to the sander frame.
Turn the belt tension lever to the right and
install the sanding belt onto the rollers.
Make sure the arrow on the back of the
sanding belt is positing towards the sanding
disc.
Once the belt is installed onto the rollers,
turn the belt tension lever back to the left to
tension the belt. See figure-5.
Figure-5 Sanding belt installed
The sanding belt should be centered on
both rollers. Before installing the removed
parts of the sander, the belt tracking
adjustment should be performed to check
and adjust the belt if necessary.
BELT TRACKING
ADJUSTMENT
Belt tracking means where the belt rides on
the rollers. The belt should always be
centered on both the rollers.
Your CT174 sander is shipped with the belt
tracking mechanism properly adjusted.
When installing a new sanding belt, you will
need to perform the belt tracking
adjustment to center the belt on the rollers.
To check the sanding belt tracking:
Turn the sander ON and see if the belt
wanders to the left or right. Be prepared to
immediately turn OFF the machine.
If the sanding belt is not riding the rollers on
a centered path, adjustment is necessary.
To adjust the sanding belt tracking:
Turn the sander ON.
Insert a small hex key into one of the holes
in the tracking adjustment wheel. See
figure-6.
Figure-6 Belt tracking adjustment wheel
To track the belt towards you, turn the
adjustment wheel downwards.
To track the belt away from you, turn the
adjustment wheel upwards.
When the belt is centered and tracking
properly on the rollers, stop the sander and
re-install the safety guards, backstop and
the dust port removed previously.
