Most wood sanding applications (such as mould sanding using narrow cloth belts) require a belt tension of approximately 40 psi. However, there are some special exceptions. For example, abrasive planing operations using coarse grits typically demand belt tension in the range of 70 to 90 psi.
Why does my belt sander keep breaking belts?
Heat, humidity, and age can contribute to belt seam failures, but they’re not the only causes. Check that your belts are turning in the direction indicated on the inside face. When not using your sander, release the tension on the belt.
What may happen to an operator who reaches across the rotating sanding disc to turn the sander off?

In which direction should you sand an object using the belt sander and why?
Begin on a flat surface and move the sander toward the uneven surfaces. Moving diagonally front to back and side to side will help average out the amount of cut that the belt is making. You do, however, have to actually set the sander on the workpiece, hold the handle, and pull the trigger.
