1. Turn the switch “ON” to see if the sanding belt
moves to one side or the other on the sanding
drums. If the belt rides on the center of the sanding
drums, it is tracking properly. Turn the switch
“OFF”.
2. If the sanding belt moves toward the disc, turn the
tracking knob (A) Fig. 20 counter-clockwise 1/4 turn.
3. If the sanding belt moves away from the disc, turn
the tracking knob (A) Fig. 20 clockwise 1/4 turn.
4. Check again to see if the belt is tracking properly.
IMPORTANT: When the tool is not in use, the switch
should be locked in the “OFF” position to prevent
unauthorized use. To lock the machine, grasp the
switch toggle (A) and pull it out of the switch (Fig. 19).
With the switch toggle (A) removed, the switch will not
operate. However, should the switch toggle be removed
while the saw is running, the machine can be turned
“OFF”, but cannot be restarted without re-inserting the
switch toggle.
