EN
Leveling
To adjust the machine leveling follow this procedure:
1. Locate the leveling screw. See gure 12.
2. Tighten the screw (compress the leveling spring) to sand heavier on drive
belt side of sanding drum.
3. Loosen the leveling screw (relax the leveling spring) to sand heavier on the side
opposite the drive belts.
Condition - Pad creates ridges on both edges or a “hop” is experienced: Rotate
both adjusting screws equal amounts clockwise. Tighten locknuts and test on a
piece of plywood. Repeat procedure until condition is corrected. We recommend you
not exceed 1/8 rotation for each attempt.
Condition - Pad creates a ridge on the tip of the pad: Rotate both adjusting screws
counter clockwise, tighten locknuts and test. Repeat procedure until condition is
corrected. Use only 1/8 rotation for each attempt.
Condition - Pad creates a ridge on only one side of the pad: Either rotate the
adjusting screw of the side effected clockwise or rotate the adjusting screw opposite
counterclockwise, depending on whether the ridge terminates beyond the tip of the
pad or prior to it. If it is prior to the tip, adjust the side effected, otherwise adjust the
opposite side.
