8. DRIVE BELT REPLACEMENT (SEE FIG H, I)
WARNING! Remove the main plug from the socket before carrying out a drive
belt replacement.
Remove the screw (a) and the belt cover as shown. 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 three screws.
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 fitted. Empty the dust
bag every 5 minutes or sooner to ensure efficient dust collection.
