Before assembling, read the manual thoroughly , familiarizing yourself with cor- rect assembly and maintenance procedures and proper safety precautions.

8 FIGURE 6 STEEL PLA TEN ADJUSTMENT The steel platen is located between the motor con- tact wheel and the idler pulley . The surface of the steel platen should protrude about 1/8"-1/4" past the motor contact wheel and the idler pulley in order to assure that the sanding belt will be in contact totally with the steel platen.

All ball bearings are sealed for life and do not require lubrication. Apply a drop of light machine oil occasionally on the hinge of the tension mechanisms as shown in Fig- ure 10.
