replacing the conveyor belt is a big job and
requires moderate mechanical skill and a fair
amount of patience. For planning purposes, expect
to have your machine out of operation for at least
a few hours.

as you remove hardware to complete these
instructions, we recommend putting all the bolts,
screws, washers, etc. back into the holes from
which they came. this simple habit will take slight-
ly longer when disassembling the machine, but it
will save you a lot of time and reduce frustration
during reassembly.

to replace the conveyor belt:

1. disConneCt poWer to the sander!

2. remove the top cover by loosening the hex

bolts and removing the phillips head screws
(
