Replacing the sanding belt (Fig. 9)
Undo knob (I) and remove the protective cover (J). Loosen
locking knob (K) and move the top adjustable pulley (L) to
release the belt tension. When loose, lock in place with knob (K)
and remove the worn or damaged belt. Fit the new sanding belt,
ensuring the arrow indicating the direction of rotation printed on
the back of the sanding belt matches the arrow pressed into the
protective cover. The belt rotates from top to bottom, when
viewed from the front.

Tensioning the belt (Fig. 10)
Loosen the locking knob (M) and the spring tensioner will
automatically tension the sanding belt. Resecure locking knob
(M) when the tension has been taken up.
Fig. 10.
Tracking the belt (Fig. 11)
If, when the sanding belt is rotating the belt wanders across the
rollers towards the housing or cover, the tracking requires
adjustment. Loosen the locking knob (M) slightly to allow the
belt to be tracked. Slight adjustment on the tracking knob (O)
will cause the belt to travel across the pulley. After each turn on
the knob, rotate the belt by hand to check the effects of the
adjustment. When the belt rotates over the pulleys centrally, the
locking knob (M)
must be tightened.
