Belt Tracking
Dust Port
“Tracking” the sanding belt means to center the
belt on its rollers, so that it runs balanced and
does not make contact with the sides of the belt
cover.
Figure 9. Sanding belt centered between belt
cover edges at the upper roller.
Figure 10. Tracking control knob.
4. Adjust the tracking with the tracking control
knob shown in Figure 10.
5. While spinning the wheel, turn the tracking
control knob counterclockwise to make the
belt move to the left, or turn the tracking con-
trol knob clockwise to make the belt move to
the right.
6. After the belt is centered between the belt
cover, spin the grinding wheel approximately
ten times to ensure that the belt continues to
track properly.
To track the sanding belt:
1. Unplug the machine!
2. Rotate the grinding wheel.
3. As you rotate the grinding wheel, watch how
the sanding belt rides on the upper roller. If
the belt is tracking properly, the sanding belt
should be centered between the sides of the
belt cover as shown in Figure 9.
The dust port is located behind the sanding belt,
below the belt roller. The opening is 1
1
⁄2" in diam-
eter and can be connected to a utility vacuum
(such as SHOP•VAC
®
) or a dust collector.
To connect the dust port to a dust collection
system:
1. Place a hose clamp over the dust hose.
2. Slide the hose over the dust port.
3. Secure the hose airtight with a hose clamp.
4. Check the hose with a light tug to make sure
it is on tight.
DO NOT use a dust collector or SHOP•VAC
®
when sanding metal, or damage to the dust
collection equipment or fire may result!
