    • In the following steps you will loosen the nuts that hold the motor in place on the frame of the sander to release the tension on the fan belt.

    • For the purposes of this repair, there is no need to fully remove any of the nuts in the following steps. Just loosen them enough to allow the motor to slide back and forth.

    • Use a socket wrench with an extension and a deep 1/2" socket to loosen the two nuts behind the dust shoe plate.

    • The nuts may be very tight. Use a breaker bar or impact driver if necessary.

    • Use a 1/2" wrench to loosen the other two nuts securing the motor.

    • Slide the motor along its mounting slots toward the back of the sander until the fan belt is detensioned.

    • During reassembly, slide the motor back to its original position before tightening the four motor mount nuts. Check that both belts are properly tracked and tensioned before securing the belt guard back into place.
