machine to come to a complete stop disconnect the sander & go to page 10 for
"Tracking the Belt". Reconnect, switch on & check again. If everything is fine, switch off &

Dust Extraction Assembly
The dust extraction moulding (C) has a 35mm outlet, insert a jubilee clip over the hose and
insert it over the outlet & clamp in place. Alternately if you have a vacuum cleaner with the
same diameter holes insert it over the outlet as before, it should be a snug fit (See figs 37 &
38).
