When starting vertical work, angle the sander so you can see that the belt makes contact with the material. As the belt touches, level the machine and make the stroke away and to the left. This movement will offset the tendency to cut heavily into the work at the start of the stroke. GOOD SANDING TECHNIQUE Getting to know the sander is most important in obtaining smooth results with a minimum of labor. Operators will quickly learn how to start a stroke with a sweeping motion to produce the best results. Use a long even stroke without additional pressure on the tool. Overlap each stroke and vary the length of movement so the results will be even. Always lift the tool from the work before starting and stopping the motor. 13 BE CAREFUL when sanding at the end of a board. Keep the tool level and flat on the work surface. Don’t let the front of the tool drop. (Fig. 6). If this happens, it will round the edge. Fig. 6 Your sander will work very fast and can do a thorough job in a fraction of the time required by hand sanding. Do not rush the job. Give every surface a thorough sanding with each grade of abrasive before changing to finer grits. Always use the abrasive material and grit size recommended for the particular job. SANDING METAL Use the Belt Sander to obtain a grained satin finish on metal. A special graphite pad is available to replace the steel shoe on the bottom of the sander. The softness of this pad aids in blending the graining. The pad is the proper length for sanders using a 3" x 24" belt. For sanders using shorter belt lengths, cut the pad so that it is the same length as the steel shoe. Replace the steel shoe with the graphite pad. TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE For assistance with your tool, visit our website at for a list of service centers or call the Porter-Cable help line at 1-800-487-8665. MAINTENANCE KEEP TOOL CLEAN Periodically blow out all air passages with dry compressed air. All plastic parts should be cleaned with a soft damp cloth. NEVER use solvents to clean plastic parts. They could possibly dissolve or otherwise damage the material. Wear ANSI Z87.1 safety glasses while using compressed air. FAILURE TO START Should your tool fail to start, check to make sure the prongs on the cord plug are making good contact in the outlet. Also, check for blown fuses or open circuit breakers in the line. 14 LUBRICATION This tool has been lubricated with a sufficient amount of high grade lubricant for the life of the unit under normal operating conditions. No further lubrication is necessary. FRAME PROTECTOR The frame protector bar is made of hardened steel. It is located to the left and the rear of the idler pulley and is fastened to the frame. This bar protects the frame of the tool when tracking the abrasive belt. Adjust the belt so that it moves evenly across (without rubbing) the protective bar. When this bar becomes worn and uneven, replace it with a new one (available from your Porter-Cable Service Center). DRIVE PULLEY The rubber-covered drive pulley at the rear of the tool is crowned or tapered from the center to either side to make the abrasive belt run true and in line with the idler pulley at the front of the tool. After considerable use, the crown will wear away and the belt will begin to run off the side of the pulley and cut into the guide block or frame. When the crown is worn to this extent, have the drive pulley replaced by your Authorized Porter-Cable Service Station. This action can be checked each time the abrasive belt is replaced and tracked. After the belt is tracked to the front pulley, watch it for a few seconds to see that it runs true and stays in place on the back pulley. Avoid getting oil and grease on the rubber cover. It will cause it to fail. BRUSH INSPECTION For your continued safety and electrical protection, brush inspection and replacement on this tool should ONLY be performed by an AUTHORIZED PORTER-CABLE SERVICE STATION or a PORTER-CABLE•DELTA FACTORY SERVICE CENTER. At approximately 100 hours of use, take or send your tool to your nearest authorized Porter-Cable Service Station to be thoroughly cleaned and inspected. Have worn parts replaced and lubricated with fresh lubricant. Have new brushes installed, and test the tool for performance. Any loss of power before the above maintenance check may indicate the need for immediate servicing of your tool. DO NOT CONTINUE TO OPERATE TOOL UNDER THIS CONDITION. If proper operating voltage is present, return your tool to the service station for immediate service. Should you have any questions about your tool, feel free to write us at any time. In any communications, please give all information shown on the nameplate of your tool (model number, type, serial number, etc.). 15 SERVICE REPLACEMENT PARTS When servicing use only identical replacement parts.
