Abstract: A belt sander for sanding a workpiece including a main housing, a motor having a motor shaft disposed within the main housing, and a handle extending from the motor housing and configured to be grasped by a user for maneuvering the belt sander. The motor shaft defines a motor axis that is perpendicular to a handle axis of the handle. The belt sander further includes a contact arm that extends from the motor housing and is moveable between a stowed position and a deployed position, and a light assembly coupled to the motor housing. The light assembly includes a light housing, an LED, and a lens coupled to the light housing for diverging light rays from the LED across a light range. When the contact arm is in the deployed position, the light range illuminates at least a portion of the contact arm and a space below the contact arm.
