General Use
The Gesswein Belt Sander is designed to use sanding belts of 4, 6, and 8mm widths.
Select a 6mm or 8mm wide belt for the Straight Belt Arm supplied with the Belt
Sander. Hold the Belt Sander in your hand with your index finger on the Release
Knob, and pull back the spring-loaded arm.
Place the selected belt over the Drive Pulley and the Belt Arm Pulley (see fig. 3).
Release your index finger from the Release Knob, and allow the spring-loaded
arm to extend fully for proper belt tension.
