How do I get the wheels to pop back out after changing the sanding belt on my old craftsman belt sander #31511720 model?

The tracking adjuster will tilt one wheel in so's you can start putting the belt on. After it gets about halfway, you will need to adjust that the other way and just bump the switch a bit a few times as you adjust and it'll work its way back on.

CHANGE THE SANDPAPER IN THE BELT SANDER

there should be a lever that will loosen the tention on the belt so you can get it off. be sure to put the new belt on with the arrows facing the rotation (some sanding belts do not need to be oriented this way, but check) otherwise the belt will come apart after a few rotations.

Replacing sand paper

Look on the side of the tool between the guide and drive wheels for a lever

Loosening or disengaging this lever will take the tension off of the belt so that it can be removed

If there is no lever, there will be a tension know on the front of the tool that you can loosen to remove the belt

The belt slips off my Belt Sander

All sander will have two adjustments. The first is to release the sanding belt by retracting the position of one of the rollers. The second adjustment moves one of the rollers belt tension from side to side. The roller angular position is changed, sometime by a single knob or screw, and sometimes by two separate adjusting screws.

Sanding Belt Slips Badly

Check and see if the pulleys on the sander are not glazed this somtimes will cause the belt to slip. Give them a good cleaning. If this does not help there is a good chance the spring on the belt tensioner is weak and need changed.

Hop this helps

Loose sanding belt

Hi, Consult your user manual for the instructions to install a new belt. Follow these instructions selectively to tighten the belt tension. Here they are....
CHANGING DRIVE BELT

Using a phillips head screwdriver, remove the two screws
in the center of the pulley cover.
Remove the cover.
Raise sanding belt to the vertical sanding position.
Next, loosen the hex head set screw. Raising the motor
pulley releases the belt tension.
Remove the old drive belt.
Fit the new drive belt on the drive pulley first and then on
the motor pulley.
Test belt tension by squeezing the belt with your fingers.
Adjust the belt tension with the hex head set screw until
there is about 1/4 in. (6 mm) of give.
Tighten the belt tension nut securely.
Note: Excessive tightness on the drive belt may cause
increased noise and overload the motor. Excessive
looseness on the drive belt may cause the drive belt to
fail prematurely and make a severe chattering noise.
Using a phillips head screwdriver, reinstall the pulley cover
and the two phillips head screws. Tighten securely.

Good Luck! Middles
