ADJUSTMENT OF SANDING BELT POSITION SETTING THE GUIDE ROLLERS PARALLEL

Ɣ Switch the sander on.

Ɣ During sanding belt movement turn the sanding belt adjustment wheel (5) (g. F) so the sanding belt

runs smoothly and does not move aside (g. G).

If you allow the sanding belt to shift to the side (which would mean that roller axes are not parallel),

the belt will be damaged soon.

When using the belt sander try to position the belt surface and surface of processed material in parallel.

Hold the additional grip (1) and main handle (7) ﬁrmly and move the sander back and forth smoothly.

Do not press the belt sander too hard. Pressure must be moderate and uniform on the whole surface

of contact of belt and processed material. Applying too big pressure causes undesirable drop of belt

speed, motor overheating, damage of processed material and parts of the sander. Make periodic

breaks in operation.

ADJUSTMENT OF SANDING BELT SPEED

You can control sanding belt speed by turning and setting in desired position the wheel for adjustment

of sanding belt speed (12). It allows to adjust the power tool working speed to match characteristics of

processed material. Speed control range is 1 to 6.

The bigger the number on the wheel rim (12) (g. I), the greater the belt sander operation speed.

COVER OF SANDING BELT

When lifted, the removable sanding belt cover (14) allows to process with front upper part of the sanding

belt, which facilitates operation in hardly accessible places (g. K).
