ADJUSTMENTS

Conveyor Belt

For this adjustment, you will adjust the feed conveyor belt hanging gap and the tracking, so the conveyor runs in the center of the table and the drive roller does not slip at maximum sanding load. See Figure 39.

NOTICE

ONLY make adjustments to the infeed roller side so the drive-chain tension is not affected.

Make sure loose clothing and long hair is secured and kept away from all moving parts.

To adjust the feed conveyor belt tension and tracking, do these steps:

1.Remove the screws from the feed conveyor safety covers and open the covers. See Figure 40.

2.Locate the conveyor roller adjustment bolts at the infeed roller. See Figure 41.

If the feed conveyor belt is loose, turn both conveyor roller adjustment bolts counter- clockwise the same amount until the belt hangs with a 12" gap.

If the feed conveyor belt tracks to the right, start the conveyor and slightly turn the right-side conveyor roller adjustment bolt counter-clockwise.

If the feed conveyor belt tracks to the left, start the conveyor and slightly turn the left- side conveyor roller adjustment bolt counter-clockwise.

3.Close the safety covers and run the feed conveyor for 15 minutes at the fastest setting to make sure the belt tracks in the center of the table.

4.Repeat Steps 2 and 3 until the belt tracks in the center of the table.

5.Turn the feed conveyor OFF and install the safety cover screws.
