Adjusting Knob (54): When the Sanding Belt (66) is properly tracking, the Belt
will remain centered and will run smoothly over the rollers of the tool. To adjust
the tracking of the Sanding Belt, rotate the Adjusting Knob clockwise or counter
clockwise. The Sanding Belt is properly tracking if, when turned on, the Belt does
not slip off the rollers.
(See figure E.)
Sanding Belt (66): The Sanding Belt should always be kept clean of sanding de-
bris and properly installed in the Belt Sander. Using dull Sanding Belts will place
an excessive load on the Belt Sander and increases the possibility of burning the
workpiece.
To install the Sanding Belt:
Unplug the Belt Sander from its electrical outlet.
Lay the Belt Sander down on its side with its Lever (39) facing upward.
(See figure E.)
Pull out on the Lever (39).
(See figure E.)
Insert the Sanding Belt (66) around both rollers, making sure the arrow on the
inside of the Belt is pointing in the direction of rotation as indicated on the hous-
ing of the tool.
(See figure E.)
Center the Sanding Belt (66) over the rollers and bottom plate of the Belt Sander.
Then move the Lever (39) back in its original position to restore belt tension.
(See figure E.)
To remove the Sanding Belt:
Place the Belt Sander on its side with its Lever (39) facing upward.
(See figure E.)
Pull out on the Lever (39). Then, remove the Sanding Belt (66).
(See figure E.)
Vacuum Bag (65): To install the Vacuum Bag, insert the Bag securely onto the dust
port of the Belt Sander. To empty the Vacuum Bag, unzip the Bag at its bottom, and
shake the sanding debris into a proper waste container.
