UCTIONS

The tool rest attaches to the inward side of 

the guard and provides a surface that must 

be used to support the workpiece during 

operation. Certain types of grinding/sanding

may require jigs or accessories that will be 

used with the tool rests to assure the proper

angle of the workpiece against the wheel. 

Failure to install and use the tool rest can lead

to serious personal injury.

To install the tool rests:

1.Loosely attach the tool rests perpendicular 

   to the belt or wheel surface with the knob 

   bolts, 5 mm washers and hex nuts.
2.To adjust the angle of the sanding belt 

   tool rest, use a square or a protractor to 

   set the angle of the tool rest in relation 

   to the sanding belt.
3.Adjust both tool rests approximately 1/16 

   to 1/8 in. from the grinding wheel and the 

   sanding belt and tighten the knob bolts.

   for the tool rest at the grinding wheel.

INSTALLATION TOOL RESTS

Figure 3

The spark guard must be installed and posi-

tioned 1/8 in. from the grinding wheel to minimize 

sparks flying towards the operator. The eye 

shield must be positioned between the grinding 

wheel and the operator's face to protect the 

operator from flying debris. This is not a rep-

lacement for safety glasses!

To install the spark guard and eye shield:

1.Using the included 5 mm screw and washer, 

   install the spark guard as shown

(

SPARK GUARD & EYE SHIELD

2. Attach the eye shield to the support bracket 

    with the included 6 mm carriage bolt and hex 

    nut. Use the 8 mm hex bolt and washer to attach

    the support bracket to the grinder.

BELT TRACKING

Tracking the sanding belt means to center the 

belt on its rollers, so that it runs balanced and 

does not make contact with the sides of the 

belt cover.

To track the sanding belt:

1. Disconnect the machine from the power 

    supply.
2. Rotate the grinding wheel.

3. As you rotate the grinding wheel, watch how 

    the sanding belt rides on the upper roller. If 

    the belt is tracking properly, the sanding belt 

    should be centered between the sides of the

    belt cover as shown (in Fig. 5).

4. While spinning the wheel, turn the tracking 

    control knob counterclockwise to make the 

    belt move to the left, or turn the tracking 

    control knob clockwise to make the belt move 

    to the right (in Fig. 6).
5. After the belt is centered, spin the grinding

    wheel approximately ten times to ensure 

    that the belt continues to track properly.
