ASSEMBLING THE COMPONENTS
The sander must no be plugged in and the
power switch must be completely off until
the assembly process has been correctly completed.
Required tools
The only tool needed for assembly that is not supplied is a
#2 philips screwdriver.
You will see numerical references to parts in the assembly steps.
These numbers refer to the exploded view of the tool shown on
page 17.
Assemble the frame to the base
1. Place the Base (Part #5) on a bench and locate the two
elongated holes that will be used to secure the sanding
Frame (#64) to the base.
Figure 1
2. Remove the plastic Belt Cover (#74) from the frame, by
unscrewing the two Knobs (#75). This will allow you to see
the two threaded holes in the frame for alignment with the
base's holes as shown above in figure 1 .
Figure 2
3. Line up the two holes in the frame with the two holes in the
base. From the bottom of the base, insert the two hex head
Screws, Washers and Lock Washers (#7, 2, 3) through the
holes to join them together. You need to tilt the base up to do
this. Hand tighten the two screws as shown above in figure 2.
4. Do not completely tighten the screws at this point.
INSTALL THE V-BELT
5. The large Belt Pulley (#42) is on the motor arbor and the
smaller Pulley (#87) is on the arbor that extends from the
frame to drive the sanding belt. Slip the V-Belt (#38) onto the
pulleys as shown in figure 3.
6. Slide the sanding belt frame assembly to tighten the belt,
so there is between 1/4" and 1/2" of deflection, as shown in
figure 4.

Figure 4
7. Both pulleys should be in-line with each other. If not, move
the frame and/or pulleys to align.
8. Completely tighten the screws holding the sanding frame to
the base, and re-attach the cover (#74). See previous step 2.
Assemble the belt and pulley guard
Figure 5
9. Position the belt and disc Drive Belt Guard (#37) over the
pulleys as shown above in figure 5 .
10. Line up the two holes in the guard with the holes in the
Sanding Disc Casting (#15), and fasten the guard in place
with the two M4 pan head Phillips Screws and Washers (#14,
35).
11. Do not completely tighten the screws at this time, as you
have to adjust the guard to the disc.
NOTE: Access to the one screw is through a pre-cut
hole located near the small pulley end.
