Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions
Setup:
- Ensure your belt sander is unplugged and powered off.
- Open the belt tension release lever on your sander.
- Remove the old sanding belt, noting the direction of the arrows on the belt if present.
- Place the new 150mm x 1220mm sanding belt onto the sander's drums, aligning it with the drive and idler pulleys. Ensure the belt is oriented correctly (check for directional arrows).
- Close the belt tension release lever to apply proper tension to the belt.
- Plug in and power on the sander briefly to check belt tracking. Adjust the tracking knob as needed until the belt runs centered on the pulleys.
Compatibility:
This belt is designed for belt sanders with a 150mm x 1220mm belt size. It is confirmed to work with ThatCable belt sanders and is stated to be compatible with various other leading brands. Always confirm your sander's belt size before purchasing.
Care:
