General Operating Instructions
1.Wear
2.Wear a good respirator breathing device.
3.To prevent accidents, turn off the tool and disconnect its power supply after use. Clean, then store the tool in- doors out of childrens’ reach.
4.Generally, when using this machine you will stand at the “open” side and feed the stock. The stock will be placed on the Conveyor Table on the left (infeed) and will travel to the right (outfeed). Use roller supports for long stock.
5.Do not stand directly in front of the infeed or outfeed end in case stock is accidently ejected.
6.Depth of cut.
a.Depth of cut will vary depending on type of wood, and sandpaper grit.
b.Lower the conveyor table lower than necessary for the stock to be sanded to prevent the stock from being “grabbed” suddenly when the ma- chine is turned on.
c. Place the stock on the Conveyor Table (137) and raise the Conveyor Table until it is just a little below the sanding roller.
d. Be sure the dust collection system is already in place. (See “Dust Bag” below.
e. Plug in and start the Drum Sander, then begin raising the Conveyor Table height while feeding the stock on the Conveyor Belt (165).
f.Turning the Hand Wheel (103) 1/4 turn, is the most that is recommend- ed at any one time.
