Loosen the thumb screws, position the auxiliary table, re-tighten the thumb screws. Figure 19. Note that the ends of the roller are tapered. This helps keep the belt tracked. When using the end roller for curved sanding, we recommend you use the center portion of the roller to assure proper belt tracking. This also prevents the edge of the workpiece from becoming tapered.
