FAQs

How do I change the sanding belt?

Release the belt tension using the lever or knob, remove the old belt, and slide the new belt onto the pulleys, ensuring it's aligned correctly. Then, re-tension the belt.

What type of dust extraction system is compatible?

The sander is compatible with a dust extraction system that has a 40mm hose connection.

How do I adjust the worktable angle?

Loosen the locking mechanism on the worktable and tilt the table to the desired angle. Tighten the locking mechanism to secure the table in place.

What should I do if the sanding disc is not adhering well?

Ensure the adhesive on the disc is clean and free of debris. If the disc is old, consider replacing it.

Can I use this sander on metal?

While the sander can remove small amounts of material from metal, it is designed for wood and plastic and is not recommended for extensive metalworking.

Troubleshooting

Sander not turning on.

Check the power supply and ensure the machine is properly plugged in and the no-volt switch is engaged.

Sanding performance is poor.

Check the sanding belt and disc for wear and tear; replace as needed. Also, ensure that the workpiece is not overloaded and is being fed at a consistent rate.

Excessive vibration during operation.

Check the machine's base for stability, and ensure the sanding belt and disc are properly seated and balanced. If the problem persists, the motor or bearings may be faulty and will need professional servicing.

Dust extraction is not working efficiently.

Check the dust extraction hose for blockages and ensure it's securely connected to both the sander and the dust extraction system.
