Always ensure the sander is
unplugged prior to attempting any assembly,
installation or changing of parts and accessories.
ASSEMBLE THE FRAME TO THE BASE
1. Place the Base (Part #61) on a bench and
locate the two elongated holes that will be used
to secure the sanding Frame (#21) to the base.
2. Remove the plastic Cover (#43) from the
frame, by unscrewing the two Knobs (#41). This
will allow you to see the two treaded holes in the
frame for alignment with the base’s holes. FIG. 1
3. Line up the two holes in the frame with the
two holes in the base. From the bottom of the
base, insert the two hex head screws, washers
and lock washers (#70, 71, 72) through the holes
to join them together. You need to tilt the base
up to do this. Hand tighten the nuts. FIG. 2.
4. Do not final tighten at this point.
INSTALL THE V-BELT
5. The large drive pulley (#54) is on the motor
arbor and the smaller pulley (#13) is on the arbor
that extends from the frame to drive the sanding
belt. Slip the V-belt onto these pulleys. FIG. 3.
6. Slide the sanding belt frame assembly to
tighten the belt, so there is between 1/4” and
1/2” of deflection, as shown in FIG. 4.
7. Both pulleys should be in-line with each other.
If not, move the frame and/or pulleys to align.
8. Final tighten the sanding frame to the base,
and re-attach the cover (#43). See step 2 above.
INSTALL THE BELT AND PULLEY GUARD
9. Position the belt & disc Guard (#106) over the
pulleys as shown in FIG. 5.
10. Line up the two holes in the guard with the
holes in the disc cover Casting (#132), and fas-
ten the guard in place with the two M4 pan head
Phillips screws and washers (#104, 105).
11. Do not final tighten the screws at this time,
as you have to adjust the guard to the disc.
NOTE:
access to the one screw is through a
pre-cut hole located near the small pulley end.
