This instruction manual provides essential information for the safe and effective use of your Keystone 2 x 42 inch 60 grit sanding belts. These belts are designed for various wood belt sanding applications, offering durability and a consistent finish. Please read this manual thoroughly before use to ensure optimal performance and safety.
The Keystone sanding belts feature an open coat aluminum oxide (A/O) grain and a strong "X" weight poly cotton cloth backing. They are antistatic, washable, and include an additive in the resin to resist loading, making them suitable for both hard and soft woods.

Each pack contains 10 sanding belts, each measuring 2 inches in width and 42 inches in length, with a 60 grit abrasive surface. The 60 grit is considered coarse, ideal for aggressive material removal and initial shaping of wood.
3. סעטאַפּ און ייַנמאָנטירונג
Proper installation of the sanding belt is crucial for safety and performance. Always refer to your belt sander's instruction manual for specific installation procedures.
- זיכערקייַט ערשטער: Ensure your belt sander is unplugged from the power source before attempting any installation or adjustment.
- Identify Belt Direction: Observe the arrows printed on the inside of the sanding belt. These arrows indicate the direction of rotation. The belt must be installed so that these arrows align with the rotational direction of your sander's drive roller.
- באַפרייאונג שפּאַנונג: Locate the belt tension release lever or mechanism on your sander and engage it to loosen the tension on the existing belt or to allow for new belt installation.
- Remove Old Belt (if applicable): פֿאָרזיכטיק שלעפּט אַראָפּ דעם אַלטן שלײַפֿגאַרטל פֿון די ראָולערס.
- אינסטאַלירן אַ נייעם גאַרטל: Slide the new Keystone sanding belt onto the rollers, ensuring the directional arrows match the sander's rotation.
- צולייגן שפּאַנונג: Re-engage the belt tension mechanism to secure the new belt firmly in place.
- שפּור אַדזשאַסטמענט: Plug in the sander and briefly turn it on to check the belt tracking. If the belt drifts to one side, adjust the tracking knob on your sander until the belt runs centrally on the rollers. Unplug the sander before making any further adjustments if the belt is significantly off-track.

Follow these guidelines for effective and safe operation of your sanding belts:
- פערזענלעכע פּראַטעקטיוו עקוויפּמענט (PPE): Always wear appropriate safety glasses, a dust mask, and hearing protection when operating a belt sander.
- זיכערער ארבעטסשטיק: זיכער מאַכן אַז אייער אַרבעטספּלאַץ איז זיכער פֿאַרמאַכטampגעהאַלטן אָדער געהאַלטן צו פאַרהיטן באַוועגונג בעת שלייפן.
- Start Sander Before Contact: Turn on the belt sander before bringing the belt into contact with the workpiece.
- גלייכע דרוק: Apply light, even pressure. Excessive pressure can lead to premature belt wear, overheating, and an uneven finish.
- קאָנסיסטענט באַוועגונג: Move the sander smoothly and consistently across the workpiece to avoid creating grooves or uneven surfaces.
- שטויב זאַמלונג: Utilize your sander's dust collection system or connect it to a shop vacuum to minimize airborne dust.
- גריט אויסוואל: The 60 grit belt is coarse and best suited for rapid material removal, shaping, and preparing surfaces for finer grits. Do not use 60 grit for final finishing.
- ויסמיידן אָוווערכיטינג: Allow the belt and workpiece to cool periodically, especially during prolonged use, to prevent heat buildup which can damage the belt and the material.
5. וישאַלט און סטאָרידזש
While sanding belts are consumable items, proper care can extend their useful life and maintain performance.
- רייניקונג: Periodically clean the belt with a sanding belt cleaning stick (crepe rubber stick) while the sander is running. This removes accumulated dust and debris, exposing fresh abrasive and improving cutting efficiency.
- דורכקוק: Before each use, inspect the belt for tears, excessive wear, or damage. A damaged belt can break during operation, posing a safety hazard.
- סטאָרידזש: Store unused belts flat or loosely coiled in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and humidity. Extreme temperatures and moisture can degrade the adhesive and abrasive properties.
- באַזייַטיקונג: Dispose of worn-out or damaged belts responsibly according to local regulations.
