1. Turn the switch “ON” to see if the sanding belt
moves to one side or the other on the sanding drums.
If the belt rides on the center of the sanding drums, it
is tracking properly. Turn the switch “OFF”.
2. If the sanding belt moves toward the disc, turn the
tracking knob (A) Fig. 20 counter-clockwise 1/4 turn.
3. If the sanding belt moves away from the disc, turn the
tracking knob (A) Fig. 20 clockwise 1/4 turn.
4. Check again to see if the belt is tracking properly.
IMPORTANT: When the tool is not in use, the switch
should be locked in the “OFF” position to prevent
unauthorized use. To lock the machine, grasp the switch
toggle (A) and pull it out of the switch (Fig. 19). With the
switch toggle (A) removed, the switch will not operate.
However, should the switch toggle be removed while the
saw is running, the machine can be turned “OFF,” but
cannot be restarted without re-inserting the switch toggle.
