3.Insert the driver with the round shaft, supplied with the machine into the micro adjusting nut (A, Fig. 11) and turn away from you to loosen.

4.Turn the micro adjusting screw (B, Fig. 11) in ¼ turn increments until the belt tracks evenly on the rollers when rotated by hand.

5.Tighten the micro adjusting nut (A, Fig. 11).

6.Connect the machine to power.

7.Turn on the power to the machine just enough to start the belt rotating and then turn off. Do this several times and observe belt tracking. Adjust as necessary. If the tracking cannot be corrected goto the next section “Motor Mount Tracking Adjustment”.

Motor Mount Tracking Adjustment

The EHVS-80CS comes with tracking adjustment bolts (A, Fig. 12) on the motor plate. These are set at the factory and should not require any further adjustment. If, however, you are not able to track the belt using the belt tracking adjustment assembly on the sanding platen, the motor mount bolts will have to be adjusted:

1.Disconnect the machine from the power source.

2.Slightly loosen the four motor mount nuts (B, Fig. 12) just enough so the tracking bolts can make an adjustment.

3.Loosen both locking hex nuts.

4.Turn one bolt (A, Fig. 12) a ¼ turn and rotate the sanding belt by hand to observe which direction the belt is tracking. If it is traveling in the direction needed to correctly track the belt, tighten both locking nuts and fine tune the tracking with the belt tracking assembly on the platen.

5.If the belt starts to travel in the wrong direction, back off a quarter turn and tighten the other bolt a quarter turn. This should start the belt in the proper direction.

Note: Use the motor mount bolts as a “major” tracking adjustment. Use the belt tracking assembly on the sanding plates as a “fine” tracking adjustment.
