Ryobi Bench Grinder with Linisher tracking difficulty.

I have a Ryobi Bench Grinder with Linisher HBGL650. I'm having great difficulty getting the sanding belt on the Linisher to track safely and successfully. It always wants to move to the left and foul the metal tabs on the left hand side. Often the Top pulley just comes flying loose, very dangerous.

It seems to me that the pivot points (dimples) on the metal ''L''-shaped part are too far ''north'' and the movement of the Belt Tracking Knob has too little effect. Can you please assist me.

Bob

It sounds like the pulley is not adjusted correctly. This is causing the belt to move on you. Carefully inspect and adjust the pulley so it is square and flat. Use a straight edge.

I have a Ryobi bench grinder and the grinding belt keeps slipping to one side have tightened to maximum and the belt says its for a Ryobi

it is slipping to one side because the pulley on the end is not aligned correctly
on the adjuster arm that holds the front pulley there is a lever or knob that you use to adjust alignment ( instructions in user manual) find that adjustment and slowly move it while the belt is running
you will see the belt running position change to you get it properly aligned
each belt regardless of ryobi or generic will need adjustment after fitting

How to change a grinder blade on a ryobi grinder

Handheld grinder or bench grinder? I'll assume you're asking about a handheld grinder.

Engage the arbor lock. You may need to rotate the wheel until you find the spot where the arbor lock locks the wheel. Use a wrench or a gloved hand to unscrew the wheel (I use my bare hand). Screw the replacement wheel on and disengage the arbor lock. The new wheel doesn't need to be very tight, it'll tighten itself as you work.
