INSTALLING WORK TABLE
NOTE: Apply coat of paste wax ;o the work table. This will make it a little easier to feed the work.
1.Loosen the table positioning screw.
2.Insert the table support rod in the hole in the base
until the edge of the table is approximately 1/16" from the abrasive disc, Tighten the screw.
NOTE: There is a second mounting hole in the base. This is for mounting the table when the belt is used in a ver- tical position.
WARNING: To avoid trapping the work or fingers be- tween the table and sanding surface, the table edge should be a maximum 1/16 inch from the sanding surface, the table should be completely engaged on the rod.

INSTALLING ABRASIVE
AND TRACKING
WARNING: FOR YOUR OWN SAFETY, TURN SWITCH "OFF" AND REMOVE PLUG FROM
POWER SOURCE OUTLET BEFORE REMOV-
ING OR INSTALLING ABRASIVE BELT.
On the smooth side of the abrasive belt you will find a
• dl"r ectlonal-arrow. n The abras, ve belt must run in the direction of this arrow so that the splice does not come
apart.
1.Loosen the two abrasive belt LOCKING screws.
2.Place the abrasive belt over the pulleys with the direc- tional arrow pointing as shown. Make sure the abra- sive belt is centered on both pulleys.
Turning the abrasive belt ADJUSTING screws will cause the idler pulley to move in or out. When the idler pulley is moved outward, it puts TENSION on the belt.
3.Place both of the ½" wrenches on the ADJUSTING screws and pull the wrenches toward you. This will stretch the abrasive belt. Move the wrenches back and
forth a few times so that you "'getthe feet" of the abrasive belt while it is stretching (TENSIONING).
Apply a small amount of TENSION to the abrasive belt by pulling the wrenches toward you, so that the TENSION feels the same on both wrenches.
