on the rollers.
To track the belt:

Belt on Page 28.
2. Tie back loose clothing and long hair to pro-
tect yourself from getting caught in the mov-
ing sanding belt when you start the machine.
3. Loosen the lock nut on the belt tracking knob.
4. Turn the sander ON, and using the tracking
control knob (see Figure 77), carefully adjust
the tracking in or out until the sanding belt is
centered on the main roller (see Figure 47,
Page 28).
