ASSEMBLY AND ADJUSTMENTS
ADJUSTING BELT TRACKING
The belt life will be increased by using the tracking adjustment.
1. Turn the tool upside down and hold it firmly with one hand. Then
start the tool and observe the tracking of the sanding belt.
2. Stop the tool and adjust the tracking of the belt by rotating the adjust-
ing knob (7) until the edge of the belt is even with the outer edges of
both the front and rear rollers.
CAUTION:
Check that the belt doesn’t rub against the tool’s frame.
OPERATION
SWITCH
This tool is started and stopped by squeezing and releasing the trigger (1).
For continuous operation, press the lock-on button (2) while trigger is being
squeezed. Squeeze trigger again to release the lock.
CAUTION:
Never cover air vents since they must always be open for proper motor cooling.
CAUTION:
Make sure that the work piece is free of nails and other foreign objects that could tear the abrasive
belt.
DUST BAG
When sanding wood, the dust bag should be used.
Although the dust bag has a substantial capacity, it should be emptied fre-
quently. Opening the zipper of the dust bag allows complete cleaning.
CAUTION:
When sanding metal, the dust bag should not be used, be-
cause of the risk of fire from flying sparks.
