Belt Tracking
The goal of this procedure is to achieve proper
belt tracking that prevents the belt from wander-
ing off to either side.
1. To adjust the tracking, quickly turn the
sander on and off. Observe the belt’s behav-
ior. If the belt moves to one side or the other,
you will need to adjust the tracking knob.
