Personal safety
•Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing and
gloves away from the power tool. Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair can become entangled
in the moving parts.
•Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection. Using safety equipment such as a dust
mask, non-skid safety shoes, a hard hat, or hearing protection whenever it is needed
will reduce the risk of personal injury.
Service
Your power tool should be serviced by a qualified specialist using only standard spare parts. This
will ensure that it meets the required safety standards.

Replacing the Sanding belts
Locate the belt tension lever (11) and pull outwards. Take care as the lever is under tension and
may spring back to the closed position. Continue pulling the lever outwards until it locks in the
position.
NOTE: The Sanding belt has directional arrows printed on the inside of the belt
Sanding belts(4) come in different grades i.e. rough through to smooth. Select the grade
according to the material operated on.
Locate the sanding belt on the rollers.Make sure the sanding belt does not touch the sides of the
casing and that the arrows, printed on the inside of the sanding belt point in the direction of travel.
Release the tension lever.
Caution is required as the lever is under spring tension. Make sure the lever closes fully.
Centralizing the sanding belt
Check that the sanding belt is running centrally before using .Centralizing the belt is necessary to
stop the belt running off the rollers. Turn the machine with the belt facing the operator.Start the
Sander and observe how the sanding belt is running. If the sanding belt is seen to move along the
rollers in either direction, it will require centralizing before use.
Turn the centralizing knob (3) either clockwise or anti-clockwise to adjust the belt tracking until the
sanding belt is running centrally. Run the Sander for a short time. If the belt is still not running
centrally ,use the centralizing knob to fine adjust the position of the sanding belt.
