To reduce the risk of injury, turn unit off and disconnect it from power source before
installing and removing accessories, before adjusting or when making repairs. An accidental start-up
can cause injury.
NEVER modify the power tool or any part of it. Damage or personal injury could result.
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF SERIOUS PERSONAL INJURY, SECURE THE WORKPIECE
AND MAINTAIN A FIRM GRIP ON THE SANDER. FRICTION BETWEEN THE SANDING BELT AND THE
WORK WILL TEND TO MOVE THE WORK BACKWARD AND THE SANDER FORWARD.
To avoid severe abrasion, ALWAYS keep fingers away from the moving belt and areas
where the belt enters the housing.
INSTALLING AND REMOVING THE ABRASIVE BELT
To reduce the risk of injury, turn unit off and disconnect it from power source before
installing and removing accessories, before adjusting or when making repairs. An accidental start-
up can cause injury.
Severe laceration hazard. If installed backwards, unidirectional sanding belts may not track
properly and may overhang the housing, possibly causing severe lacerations.
1.
Place the sander on its left side.
2.
Pull the lever (A) to the rear of the tool to retract the idler pulley and release tension on the
abrasive belt.
3.
Remove the old belt.
4.
Install the new belt with the arrow (printed on the inside of the belt) on the top and pointing
TOWARD the idler pulley (B).
NOTE: Some sanding belts are bi-directional and will not have arrows printed on them. You can
install them to run in either direction.
5.
Engage the front pulley by pushing the lever (A) back to its original position.
TO START AND STOP BELT SANDERS
To reduce the risk of injury, make sure the sander is not resting on the workpiece when
the switch is turned on.
To reduce the risk of injury, check to see that the belt guard (G) Fig. 3 is in place,
secured, and working correctly.
1.
Make sure that the switch is "OFF" and the power circuit voltage is the same as the voltage
shown on the specification plate. Connect the tool to the power circuit.
2.
Squeeze the trigger (A) Fig. 2 to start the motor. Release the trigger to stop the motor.
3.
To allow the motor to run without constantly holding the trigger, press the trigger switch (A),
push the lock button (B) Fig. 2, and release the trigger switch.
4.
To release the lock button, squeeze the trigger and release.
VARIABLE SPEED CONTROL (Models 360VS, 362VSK and 362V only)
Models 360VS and 362VSK have Variable Speed Control. The operating speed is adjustable
between 1000 SFM (surface feet per minute) and 1500 SFM.
Adjust the speed by turning the thumbwheel (C) Fig. 2. Thumbwheel position #1 provides the
slowest operating speed (1000 SFM) while position #6 provides the fastest operating speed (1500
SFM). The speed can be changed with the motor running or not running.
TRACKING THE ABRASIVE BELT
Severe laceration hazard. Properly adjust the tracking of the belt to avoid it overhanging the
housing. A running belt overhanging the housing can cause severe lacerations.
Make sure the trigger switch is "OFF" before connecting the tool to power source.
To prevent excessive wear on both the sander and belt, NEVER allow the abrasive belt to rub on
the sander frame. To make sure that the belt is tracking correctly, do the following:
1.
Turn the tool over, rest the tool on its front handle, and grasp the rear handle with your left
hand. Rest your ring finger and little finger on the trigger (Fig. 3).
2.
Start the motor by squeezing the trigger.
3.
Turn the belt aligning screw (A) Fig. 3 in either direction until the edge of the belt is even with
the outer edge of the rear rubber-covered pulley. The edge of the belt will extend beyond the
edge of the front pulley.
4.
Turn the motor "OFF" and allow the sander to come to a COMPLETE STOP before turning it
right side up.
DUST COLLECTION (Models 360, 360VS, 362, 362V and 362VSK)
To reduce the risk of injury, turn unit off and disconnect it from power source before
installing and removing accessories, before adjusting or when making repairs. An accidental start-
up can cause injury.
Empty dust collection system frequently, especially when sanding resin-coated
surfaces such as polyurethane, varnish, shellac, etc. Dispose of coated dust particles according
to the fi nish manufacturer's guidelines, or place in a metal can with a tight fi tting metal lid.
Remove coated dust particles from the premises daily. The accumulation of fi ne sanding dust
particles may self ignite and cause fi re.
Shock hazard. The use of a vacuum hose and vacuum adapter with the belt sander
may generate static electricity that could result in startling static discharge.
Fire hazard. Do not use a dust collection device when sanding metal. Doing so creates a
fire hazard, which may cause serious personal injury and/or damage to the tool.
For the models with a dust bag, do not operate the sander without the bag or a dust
collection hose.
Depress the dust bag spring clips (A) Fig. 4, and place the dust bag spring (A) between the ridges
on the spout (B).
For most efficient operation, empty the dust bag when it is half full. To remove, squeeze the dust
bag spring clips (A) and pull the bag straight up. Unzip the rear of the bag and shake out the dust.
Every so often, turn the bag inside out and brush the accumulated dust from the inside.
GENERAL SANDING
SECURE THE WORKPIECE and maintain a FIRM GRIP on the sander. Movement of the
sanding belt against the workpiece will try to move the work backward and/or the sander forward.
Verify that the switch is "OFF" before connecting the sander to the power circuit.
1.
Hold the sander off the work before starting the motor.
2.
Lower the sander to the work, touching the rear part of the belt first. Level the machine when
moving it forward.
3.
Guide the machine over the work in overlapping strokes. Allow the sander to do the work.

4.
Avoid applying excessive pressure. The weight of the machine is usually sufficient for a fast
smooth finish. A slight increase in pressure may speed removal of material, but too much
pressure will slow the motor and decrease removal.
5.
Work back and forth over a fairly wide area to obtain an even surface.
6.
Do not let the tool tilt. The edge of the belt can make a deep cuts into the surface.
7.
Do not pause in any one spot during the sanding operation. The belt will eat into the work and
make the surface uneven.
8.
Lift the tool from the work before turning the motor off.
9.
Always be sure that the motor has completely stopped before putting the tool down.

CLEANING
Periodically blowing dust and chips out of the motor housing using clean, dry com-
pressed air is a suggested maintenance procedure. To reduce the risk of serious personal injury,
ALWAYS wear ANSI Z87.1 safety glasses while using compressed air.
When cleaning, use only mild soap and a damp cloth on plastic parts. Many house-
hold cleaners contain chemicals which could seriously damage plastic. Also, do not use gasoline,
turpentine, lacquer or paint thinner, dry cleaning fluids or similar products which may seriously
damage plastic parts. NEVER let any liquid get inside the tool; NEVER immerse any part of the tool
into a liquid.
