I just purchased a new Rikon 50-161VS 1 x 30 inch belt sander and have been having an issue getting a surface conditioning belts to run on it. I have tried stretching. soaking and leaving on overnight with minimal luck. If I do get it to turn with a little help is is not very fast. I had some old surface belts years ago that were a lot thinner and more flexible that the ones I received from supplier.

I also tried them on an old Dremel Belt Sander with about the same amount of luck.

So any suggests would be helpful. Thanks
 
1x30 units are pretty limited and this is one of those limitations unfortunately.
