2.Raise the safety guard (Figure 17) on the front end of the feed table.

3.Increase or decrease the feed belt tension by adjusting the bolts located on the left and right side of the front table roller (Figure 17). Note—When tensioned properly, you should not be able to lift the feed belt off the table surface or slide it back and forth.

DO NOT sand boards with the guard removed. Failure to follow this warning could result in serious personal injury.
