is complete. Failure to comply could result in accidental

starting and possible serious injury.

• Remove the backing from the sanding disc.

• Align perimeter of sanding disc with plate and press

ﬁrmly into position.

• Position disc guard against the lower one-third of the

disc, aligning holes as shown in ﬁgure 4.

• Using the two phillips head screws, securely tighten the

disc guard into place.

Installing/Replacing sanding belt, Fig. 5.

On the smooth side of the sanding belt, there is a direc-

tional arrow. The sanding belt must run in the direction of

the arrow.

• Pull the tension lever toward you to release belt ten-

sion.

• Place the sanding belt over the drive drum and idler drum

with the directional arrows running counterclockwise. Be

sure the sanding belt is centered on both drums.

• Push the tension lever back into place to apply the belt

tension.

Note: The tension lever is spring loaded so use extreme

caution when pushing the tension lever back into place to

avoid personal injury.

Mounting the worktable for use with the disc sander, Fig. 6

To use the worktable with the disc sander:

• Insert the index pin into the hole as shown in ﬁgure 6.

• Position the worktable not further than 1/16 in. (1.6

mm) from the sanding surface.

• Using a hex key, tighten the hex set screw securely.

Mounting the worktable for use with the belt sander, Fig. 7

To use the worktable for vertical sanding:

• Insert the index pin into the hole as shown in ﬁgure 7.

• Position the worktable not further than 1/16 in. (1.6

mm) from the sanding surface.

• Using a hex key, tighten the hex set screw securely.

CAUTION: To avoid trapping the workpiece or your ﬁngers

between the table and the sanding surface, the table edge

should NEVER be further from the sanding surface than

1/16 in (1.6 mm).

Assembling work support, Fig. 8.

• Place the work support over the holes in the side of the

tool housing.

• Using a hex key, fasten in place with the washers and

socket head screws.

Mounting belt/disc sander to work bench, Fig. 9

If your belt/disc sander is to be used in a permanent loca-

tion, it is recommended you secure it to a workbench or

other stable surface. When mounting the belt/disc sander

to a workbench, holes should be drilled through the sup-

porting surface of the workbench.

• Mark holes on workbench where belt/disc sander is to be

mounted using holes in the base as a template for hole

pattern.

• Drill holes through workbench.

• Place belt/disc sander on workbench aligning holes in

the base with holes drilled in the workbench.

• Insert bolts (not included) and tighten securely with lock

washers and hex nuts (not included).

Note: All bolts should be inserted from the top. Install the

lock washers and hex nuts from the underside of the work-

bench.

Clamping belt/disc sander to work bench, Fig. 10

If your belt/disc sander is to be used as a portable tool, it

is recommended you fasten it permanently to a mount-

ing board that can easily be clamped to a workbench or

other stable surface. The mounting board should be of

sufﬁcient size to avoid tipping while belt/disc sander is

in use. Any good grade plywood or chipboard with a 3/4

in. (19 mm) thickness is recommended.

• Mark holes on board where belt/disc sander is to be

mounted using holes in the base as a template for hole

pattern.

• Follow last three steps in section Mounting Belt/Disc

Sander to Workbench.

If lag bolts are used, make sure they are long enough to

go through holes in belt/disc sander base and material the

belt/ disc sander is being mounted to. If machine bolts are

used, make sure bolts are long enough to go through holes

in belt/disc sander, the material being mounted to, and the

lock washers and hex nuts.

Adjustments

WARNING: Before performing any adjustment, make sure

the belt/disc sander is unplugged from the power supply

and the switch is in the OFF position. Failure to heed this

warning could result in serious personal injury.

Adjusting the belt tracking, Fig. 11

• Plug in belt/disc sander.

To check belt tracking:

• Turn the switch ON and then immediately turn it OFF. If

the belt tends to slide off the idler drum or drive drum,

the belt is not tracking properly.

To adjust belt tracking:

• If the sanding belt moves toward the disc, turn the track-

How do you change the sanding belt? I've released the tensioner but can't see how to get the bottom of the belt out. Submitted on 11-1-2019 at 17:50
