PART 3: Drum-to-Conveyor Height

For this adjustment, you will find a reference 

height for the front drum and then adjust the 

rear drum so it is 0.007" to 0.010" lower than the 

front drum. See 

Figure 27

.

To adjust the drum-to-conveyor height, do these 

steps:

1.

 Lower the conveyor table, and position the  

30" gauge block to one side of the conveyor 

belt and flush with the end of the feed 

conveyor drive roller.  See 

Figure 28

.

2.

 Raise the conveyor table so the gauge block 

barely touches the front drum and mark this 

height position with tape on the handwheel 

at the 12:00 o’clock position. See 

Figure 

29

.

3. 

Turn the handwheel counter-clockwise  exactly 

1

2

 turn to lower the conveyor. 

4. 

Unlock the rear-drum micro-adjusting lock 

lever and turn the micro-adjusting knob so 

the rear drum lowers until it just barely 

touches the gauge block.

5.

 Repeat 

Step 14

 at both ends of the rear drum.

NOTICE

Make sure you use the same part of the 30" 

gauge block at the opposite side of the conveyer 

belt when adjusting the drum-to-conveyor 

height. Otherwise, the adjustment may be 

inconsistent.

NOTICE

Once the rear drum height is set, the height 

can be fine-tuned later without having to 

complete all four parts of this section. However, 

you must make sure that when you adjust the 

rear drum height you adjust it equally on both 

sides so it stays square and level with the 

conveyor table. Using a pencil, mark a squiggly 

line on the workpiece and sand it to test for 

even sanding. Look for uniform removal of the 

line. If the line is not removed uniformly, 

readjust the sander accordingly.
