Belt slipping or not gripping properly

Check that the belt tension is sufficient. Increase tension slightly according to your sander's manual. Ensure the rollers are clean and free from debris.

Release the tension on the sanding belt mechanism, remove the old belt, fit the new Bosch X440 belt, ensuring the directional arrows on the belt (if present) align with the direction of rotation of your sander's rollers. Apply tension to the belt mechanism to secure the belt firmly in place. Always consult your belt sander's manual for specific installation instructions.

If a belt appears worn, clogged, or damaged, it should be replaced immediately to maintain performance and prevent damage to your workpiece or tool.
