Premature bearing failure can occur
if the fan belt is set too tight. The fan
belt should deflect ½" at the center
of the span with 5 lbs. of pressure.
NOTE: It is necessary to adjust the fan belt indepen-
dently during this procedure or during replacement. The
idler pulley is factory adjusted.

Machine Set-Up
To set-up your machine follow this procedure:
1. Familiarize yourself with the machine and read all
danger, warning and caution statements. Make
sure all operators of this machine have read this
Owner's Manual. If they cannot read this manual,
have the manual explained fully before allowing
anyone to operate the sander.
2. Locate the electrical source. The receptacle
should be compatible with the plug. The recep-
tacle must be grounded and must be fused (see
nameplate for electrical requirements) to avoid an
electrical hazard.
3. Clip the dust bag to the elbow. (See figure 9)
Cross the strings on the dust bag and draw tight
over the flare on the elbow. Wrap the string around
the elbow and secure.
4. Wind the electrical cord through the cable arm.
(See figure 10) Keep the power cord out of path of
equipment. Do not connect the electrical cord at
this time.
5. Pull the draw latch forward to release the access
door to gain entry to the sanding chamber.
6. Rotate the release lever forward. (See Figure 11)
