The conveyor feed rate dial (see =`^li\)') adjusts the

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

feed rate of the conveyor from 5 to 17 feet per minute

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

(FPM). The correct speed for your operation depends on

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

the type of stock you are sanding (e.g., hardwood vs. soft-

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

wood), the depth of cut, and the stage of finish desired.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

As a general rule, a slower feed rate will sand the surface

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

smoother, but runs the risk of burning the wood. A higher

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

feed rate will remove material faster, but runs the risk of

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

overloading the motor (refer to 8dg\iX^\CfX[D\k\ion

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

GX^\)) for more information on sander work load). Use

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

trial-and-error to determine the correct feed rate for your

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

operation.
