3.2. Adjusting Belt Tracking

After installing a new belt, it is crucial to adjust the belt tracking to ensure the belt runs centrally on the rollers and does not rub against the housing.

1. Briefly switch on the sander (without touching the workpiece) and observe the belt's movement.
2. Use the belt tracking adjustment knob (see Figure 3.3) to fine-tune the belt's position. Turn the knob clockwise to move the belt in one direction and counter-clockwise to move it in the other until it runs centrally.
3. Repeat this process if the belt tracking shifts during operation.
