Before you can install the table, you must run the
sander to track the belt. However, you should
perform a “pre-tracking” procedure before starting
the sander to ensure that the belt does not come
off of or bottom out on the rollers during the initial
startup.

To pretrack the belt:

1.

Make sure that the sander is disconnect-
ed from the power!

2.

Loosen the tracking lock knob.

3.

Standing in front of the sander, push the
sanding belt multiple times along the platen,
so that it moves in the direction of operation
(counter-clockwise on the rollers), and watch
how the belt tracks on the rollers.

4.

Adjust the tracking higher or lower as need-
ed and continue to rotate the belt by hand.

5.

Repeat

steps 3 & 4 until the top of the sand-

ing belt rides even with the top of the main
roller as shown in

Figure 11.

To install the roller guard:

1.

Place the guard on top of the idler roller and
secure it in position with the included small
star knob, as shown in

Figure 10.
