After you put the drive belt on and before you apply power, use the 12" sanding disc to turn the shaft and make sure everything is free. If the speed is not set to slow, while turning the shaft with the sanding disc, turn the speed dial down to slow. If everything is free after this exercise, hit the switch. If not, find where it is binding. Good luck!
Very good advice. All too often we try to make something major when the fix is really simple.
