How to remove the belt from a Belt Sander
The first thing you want to do before removing an old or torn belt from a belt sander is make sure the machine is unplugged. Once the belt sander is removed from its power source, locate the sanding belt release lever. Lift the belt release lever and lock it in the open position. You will notice the tension is released from the belt. Making sure the belt release lever is not in the way, lift the loosened belt straight off the belt sander and discard.
