Water Hook up
There are a few options available for water hook-up to your new Covington Commercial Wet Belt Sander and Polisher. The two most common are the 2-Gallon Pressure Tank, which provides water to the belt with only a few pumps of pressure, or the water pump, which provides constant water to the belt.
Both methods are efficient and inexpensive. The Pressure Tank will hook right into your sander valve and must be tightened down sufficiently for the aluminum tubing to remain in the valve. Simply give the pressure tank a few pumps and the water will begin to spray onto the belt. You will occasionally have to pump the handle to keep pressure in the tank and keep the water flowing.
The water pump is a submersible unit that must be placed into a bucket of water. The pump has a quick-connect attachment for the ¼” plastic tubing. Simply press the tubing into the quick connect and it will stay in place. The other end of the tubing must be placed securely into the sander valve using a copper fitting with the tubing. This fitting prevents leaking. Once the tubing is connected, simply plug the pump into an outlet, make sure the valve is open and it will begin putting water onto your belt.
We also recommend purchasing a drain kit with your sander to eliminate dirty water as it accumulates in the pan. Simply remove the drain plug, attach the drain kit, and put the remaining tubing into a bucket. By removing the water from the pan, you prevent overflow, cross-contamination, and scratching of your pieces.

Matthew Boult Excellent purchase. Easy installation with good instructions. The belts are easy to change and adjust. I mounted this on a solid table and have had no issues with it moving or breaking down. The only issue is the water spray goes outside the containment area and tends to get all over the place. This maybe normal but I have all wood counters and tables so there is a concern about water damage and mold. I would recommend this sander to anyone with a small shop doing hobby glass.

Gwendolyn G. Great, versatile piece of equipment. I use for glass coldworking and lapidary to polish slabs and geodes. Kiln Frog was great to work with and great equipment and prices.

Clare Don’t buy. Covington table top belt sanders are a big waste of money. I repeatedly read the instructions and watched the videos on the proper operation and adjustment of my Covington. And I followed the instructions carefully, because this sander was a big investment for me. The fist couple of times the sander worked well, but with each use it became more difficult to get the belt on the sander and to maintain the proper tension. After using the sander maybe 20 times, I can’t get a belt on the sander unless tension and tracker are as loose as possible. And then it is very difficult to maintain the appropriate tension to keep the belt on the drums. I have spent way too much time fooling with this sander. In addition, I have now met two glass artists who had the same experience as me and both just gave up on their Covington belt sanders. And at least one glass studio that sells Covington products will not carry the belt sanders because the studio and its customers have had the same experience as me.
If I could give zero stars, I would.

Bathsheba Grossman A wet belt sander is a great thing to have if you're doing gently curved convex stuff, and nice for putting a rough flat on before you lap.
This one is the entry level and it's all right for what it is. Gets the job done, plenty of power for its size.
The main papercut I feel with it is that the water sprayer doesn't wet the whole belt, only the middle, so you have to constantly move the piece to spread the water around so the edges don't run dry and overheat.
Changing and tensioning belts isn't as seamless as bigger models that have a lever, you have to screw a screw to the right tension. But again, if this is the level you're at, it does the job and is way better than no sander.
