CONVEYOR BELT TENSION
AND TRACKING
The conveyor belt may slide to the right or left during
operations if the tension of the conveyor belt is too
loose or too tight. To adjust, follow these procedures:
1.
While the unit is running, turn the adjustment bolts
(A) on either side of the conveyor table.
SEE FIG. 7.
2.
The conveyor belt should run at the center of the
conveyor table, and should be tensioned so that
there is good traction during stock feeding.

REPLACING THE CONVEYOR BELT

conveyor belt will need to be replaced for ideal results.
TO REPLACE THE CONVEYOR BELT:
1.
Remove the guards at both ends of the sander.
2.
The four cap screws (A) at the bottom of the feed
table assembly must be removed.
SEE FIG. 9.
