IMPORTANT
Read Operating Instructions before using equipment.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
1. Abrasive belt rotation is counter-clockwise. If the abrasive belt is lap spliced be sure of the correct belt
rotation. Butt spliced belts bi-directional.
2. Belt tension is pre-set with internal spring (9). No belt tension adjustment is required. The yoke assembly is
spring loaded for constant belt tension. The tension lever (10) tightens and loosens belt tension.
3. To change belt disconnect power: open belt guard (43) and locate the tension lever (10) between the sander
frame (7). Pull down tension lever (10) to compress tension spring and release belt tension. Remove and
replace sanding belt. Be sure of correct belt rotation. Look inside belt for arrows showing you correct
rotation. Lift tension lever (10) to allow re-tensioning of belt. Check tracking of belt short on/off of motor
before letting the machine run. Spinning the belt by hand with power off will also check rough tracking be
for running machine. Be sure sanding belt stays centered on platen.
4. Belt tracking: tracking the sanding belt is done with the tracking knob (22) on yoke assembly. Tightening
knob (22) raises idler spindle and the belt moves toward the motor. Loosening the tracking knob drops the
idler spindle (17) and the sanding belt moves away from the motor. When the belt is centered on the platen
(16), tighten jam nut on tracking knob to lock in belt position.
TROUBLE SHOOTING AND TRACKING PROBLEMS
• Drive pulley lost its crown (curvature of pulley)
• Sanding belt are not spliced square.
• Upper pulley assembly not squre to platen. (Use carriage bolts to square yoke with platen.)

PREMATURE PLATEN WEAR AND BELT BREAKAGE WILL OCCUR. MOVE WORK PIECE
TO DIFFERENT AREAS OF PLATEN TO EXTEND PLATEN AND BELT LIFE.
