READ AND UNDERSTAND ALL OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS AND SAFETY
INSPECT YOUR NEW UNIT CAREFULLY FOR SIGNS OF SHIPPING DAMAGE. IF DAMAGED,PLEASE
CONTACT CARRIER AND SUBMIT A CONCEALED DAMAGED REPORT. DO NOT RETURN GOODS TO
US WITHOUT OUR RGA NUMBER AND SHIPPING INSTRUCTIONS. SEE PAGE 2 FOR RETURN POLICY
AND WARRANTY.
BEFORE STARTING OR CONNECTING ELECTRICALS, VERIFY THE PHASE AND VOLTAGE OF THE
UNIT.
BE SURE MACHINE IS BALANCE CORRECTLY SO IT WILL NOT TIP OVER.
TO GUARD AGAINST CONCEALED DAMAGE, STAND CLEAR AND OBSERVE UNIT FOR THE FIRST
FEW MINUTES OF OPERATION. GUARDS MUST NEVER BE REMOVED. KEEP ALL SAFETY GUARDS,
WORK TABLES, ETC, IN PROPER ADJUSTMENT. WORK TABLE MUST BE KEPT WITHIN 1/8" FROM
THE SANDING BELT.
ABRASIVE BELT TENSION
ABRASIVE BELT IS CONTROLLED BY SPRING TENSIONS. THE TENSIONS RELEASE LEVER (#15)
CONTROLS THE BELT BELT TENSION. PULL (#15) OUT TO RETRACT HEAD, WHICH WILL RELEASE
BELT TENSION. PUSH (#15) IN TO EXTEND HEAD, WHICH WILL APPLY TENSION TO THE SANDING
BELT. ADJUST THE BELT TENSION TO THE MINIMUM SUFFICIENT TO ENSURE GOOD CONTACT
WITH THE DRIVE AND IDLER WHEELS. THEN THE BELT WILL TRACK PROPERLY UNDER BOTH
START UP AND GRINDING CONDITIONS..
PLATEN ALIGNMENT
USING A STRAIGHT EDGE, SET THE STRAIGHT EDGE ON THE PLATEN (#28) SO IT SPANS ACROSS
BOTH THE DRIVE AND CONTACT WHEEL PULLEY FACES. DRIVE PULLEY CLEARANCE SHOULD BE
1/8" LOWER THAN PLATEN FACE AT THE OUTER EDGES OF THE DRIVE PULLEY. CONTACT WHEEL
CLEARANCE SHOULD BE 1/32" LOWER THAN PLATEN FACE. USE BRACKETS (#29) TO LOWER OR
RAISE PLATEN HEIGHT.
DRIVE PULLEY
POOR BELT TRACKING CAN RESULT FROM NORMAL WEAR OVER TIME OF THE DRIVE PULLEY.
THE DRIVE PULLEY FACE IS CROWNED SLIGHTLY TO HOLD BELT TRACKING. WHEN THE CROWN
IS WORN DOWN AND THE DRIVE PULLEY BECOMES FLAT FACED, TRACKING PROBLEMS WILL
RESULT. A QUICK FIX WOULD BE TO WRAP A FEW LAYERS OF MASKING TAPE AROUND THE
CENTER HIGHER THAN THE OUTER EDGES IF THIS ALLEVIATES THE PROBLEM, THEN A NEW
PULLEY WILL WILL BE NEEDED WITH THE CORRECT CROWN ON IT.
CHANGING BELT
TURN MACHINE POWER OFF. RELEASE BELT TENSION WITH TENSION RELEASE HANDLE (#15),
CHANGE THE BE LT (MAKE SURE OF THE CORRECT ROTATION). RE-TENSION THE BELT WITH
(#15).
