OPERATING
INSTRUCTIONS
1. ON/OFF SWITCH
Depress to start and release to stop your tool.
2. SWITCH LOCK-ON BUTTON
Depress on/off switch (1) then lock on button
(2) (See A). Your tool is now locked on for
continuous use. To switch off your tool just
depress and release the on/off switch.
3. VARIABLE SPEED CONTROL DIAL
Adjust the variable speed control dial (3)
to increase or decrease the speed (See B)
according to the material and sanding belt
specification to be used (also possible during
no load operation). See the table below for
general guidance on speed selection. Avoid
prolonged use at very low speed as this may
damage your sander’s motor.

4. HAND GRIP AREAS
Always hold your belt sander firmly with both
hands when operating (See C).
5. CHANGING A SANDING BELT
WARNING! Remove the main plug from the
socket before changing sanding belt. Pull the
lever (5) to release the belt tension. Remove
and fit a new belt over both rollers (See D).
Ensure the direction of rotation arrows on the
belt and the sander are the same. Close the
lever to tension the belt.
6. BELT CENTERING CONTROL
WARNING! Wear eye protection
before carrying out a belt centering
adjustment.
Turn the machine upside down, hold it firmly
with one hand, start the motor and release the
switch immediately after observing tracking of
sanding belt. If abrasive belt runs outward, turn
tracking adjustment knob counter-clockwise
and clockwise if belt runs inward (See E). Adjust
the belt until the outer edge of the belt is even
with the outer edge of the base-plate (9). Belt
life will be greatly increased by keeping the
tracking adjustment set properly.
7. DUST BAG
You must use the dust collection bag provided
to collect the dust produced during sanding.
The dust collection bag plastic bracket slides
down onto the dust outlet on the belt sander
(See F). When the dust collection bag is full,
remove and empty by opening the zip on the
dust bag (7).
8. DRIVE BELT REPLACEMENT.
WARNING! Remove the main plug
from the socket before carrying out
a drive belt replacement.
Remove the two
screws and the belt cover as shown(See G).
Carefully cut the drive belt if not already broken
and remove from your belt sander. Fit your new
drive belt around the large pulley. Then install
onto the small pulley by rotating clockwise and
pushing the drive belt shown around the small
pulley at the same time. The drive belt will be a
tight fit. Fit the belt cover and two screws.
WORKING HINTS FOR
YOUR BELT SANDER
If your power tool becomes too hot, especially
when used at low speed, set the speed to
maximum and run with no load for 2-3 minutes
to cool the motor. Avoid prolonged usage at
very low speed. Always use a sanding belt
suited to the material you wish to sand. Always
ensure the work-piece is firmly held or clamped
to prevent movement. Support large panels
close to the sanding area. Any movement of the
material may affect the quality of the sanding
finish. Start your sander before sanding and
turn off only after stopping sanding. For best
results sand wood in the direction of the grain.
Do not start sanding without the sanding belt
