Tracker kit (set of 2)
Stock No.: PM2244‐213
Trackers dramatically reduce tracking adjustments of
conveyor belts. They are already installed on your
sander. The following information is for resetting or
replacing your trackers, should that become
necessary.
1.
Disconnect sander from power source/unplug.
2.
Raise drum as high as it will go.
3.
Turn both conveyor take‐up screws to relieve
conveyor belt tension and slide driven roller fully
inward.
4.
Remove the 2 bolts and loosen 2 wing screws
holding conveyor table to sander base.
5.
Lift conveyor table and slide it out of sander.
Turn conveyor table upside down. Be careful not
to damage conveyor belt.
6.
On the underside of the conveyor table, there
are U‐channels welded to the table. The Tracker
is positioned on the inside of the first U‐channel
on the infeed side of sander (Figure 11‐1). The
back of tracker is magnetized and will stick to
side wall of conveyor table. Do not install tracker
if edge of conveyor belt is damaged or torn.

7.
With first tracker installed, slide conveyor belt
into bottom slot of tracker.
Note:
When installed
properly, only bottom lip of tracker will be
visible. The top slot can be used if bottom slot
wears out.
8.
Install second tracker opposite the first. Use both
trackers unless the second one does not fit in
conveyor or unless conveyor belt is damaged.
9.
Turn conveyor table right‐side up and reposition
it onto sander. Re‐attach three mounting screws
and tighten.
Caution:
Be careful not to knock
tracker(s) out of conveyor table when turning
conveyor over. Trackers may break if allowed to
fall.
10.
Make sure all switches are off. Connect power to
sander and plug in motor.
11.
Tension conveyor belt using take‐up screws. If
both trackers are installed, it is very important to
have equal tension on both sides of conveyor
belt. Turn take‐up screws on both sides until
equal tension is obtained.
12.
To check tension, turn on conveyor full speed
and place both hands on conveyor. If conveyor
belt can be stopped, continue tensioning until
conveyor belt cannot be stopped by both hands
on the belt while conveyor is operating at full
speed.
13.
Make sure conveyor belt runs smoothly inside
tracker slot and that the magnet is holding the
tracker in position.
14.
Continue to watch tracking of conveyor and
adjust only if necessary, making sure to keep
