to support the workpiece during operation. Cer-
tain types of grinding/sanding may require jigs or
accessories that will be used with the tool rest to
assure the proper angle of the workpiece against
the wheel. Failure to install and use the tool rest
can lead to serious personal injury.
To install the tool rest:
Loosely attach the tool rests perpendicular to the
f
belt or wheel surface with the knob bolts, 5 mm
washers and hex nuts (included).
To adjust the angle of the sanding belt tool rest, use
f
a square or a protractor to set the angle of the tool
rest in relation to the sanding belt. Adjust both tool
rests approximately 1,5-3,0mm. from the grinding
wheel and the sanding belt and tighten the knob
bolts. (in Fig. 1) shows the correct adjustment for
the tool rest at the grinding wheel.
SPARK GUARD & EYE SHIELD
The spark guard must be installed and positioned
3mm from the grinding wheel to minimize sparks

flying towards the operator. The eye shield must
be positioned between the grinding wheel and
the operator's face to protect the operator from
flying debris. This is not a replacement for safety
glasses!
To install the spark guard and eye shield:
Using the included 5 mm screw and washer, install
f
the spark guard as shown (in Fig. 2)
Attach the eye shield to the support bracket with
f
the included 6 mm carriage bolt and hex nut. Use
the 8 mm hex bolt and washer to attach the support
bracket to the grinder (Fig.2).

BELT TRACKING
Tracking the sanding belt means to center the belt
on its rollers, so that it runs balanced and does not
make contact with the sides of the belt cover.
To track the sanding belt:
Disconnect the machine from the power supply.
f
Rotate the grinding wheel.
f
As you rotate the grinding wheel, watch how the
f
sanding belt rides on the upper roller. If the belt is
tracking properly, the sanding belt should be cen-
tered between the sides of the belt cover as shown
(in Fig. 3).
While spinning the wheel, turn the tracking control
f
knob counterclockwise to make the belt move to the
left, or turn the tracking control knob clockwise to
make the belt move to the right.
After the belt is centered, spin the grinding wheel
f
approximately ten times to ensure that the belt con-
tinues to track properly.

DUST/CHIP EXTRACTION
Dust from materials such as lead-containing coat-
ings, some wood types, minerals and metal can be
harmful to one's health. Touching or breathing-in
the dust can cause allergic reactions and/or lead
to respiratory infections of the user or bystanders.
Certain dust, such as oak or beech dust, is con-
sidered carcinogenic, especially in connection
with wood-treatment additives (chromate, wood
preservative). Materials containing asbestos may
only be worked by specialists.
Provide for good ventilation of the working place.
It is recommended to wear a P2 filter-class respi-
rator.
Observe the relevant regulations in your country
for the materials to be worked.
Avoid dust accumulation at the workplace.
Dust can easily ignite.
OPERATION
STARTING OPERATION
Pay attention to the mains voltage. The voltage
f
of the power source must match the voltage
specified on the rating plate of the power tool.
Power tools marked with 230 V can also be oper-
ated with 220 V.
Always check abrasive tools before using them.
f
The abrasive tool must be fitted properly and be
able to move freely. Carry out a test run for at
least one minute with no load. Do not use abra-
sive tools that are damaged, run untrue or vi-
brate during use. Damaged abrasive tools can burst
