Most brands of replacement abrasives are directional, and must be installed in the proper direction. Directional belts are so indicated on the backing material by arrows. The direction of the abrasive should match that of the arrow on the platen assembly (Figure 17).

Once the belt direction has been determined, pull the belt tensioning handle toward you with one hand, while using the other hand to slide the belt onto both drums and over the platen pad. See Figure 17. 6. Center the belt on the platen and release the belt tensioning handle. 7. Before operating, the belt should be tracked. See "Belt Tracking Adjustment."
