Scale.Pointer.Calibration
For the scale pointer to be accurate, it must be calibrat-
ed.
We recommend calibrating your scale pointer any time
you adjust the drum heights or table lift screws.

1.
Sand a workpiece with the drum sander and measure
the thickness of the sanded workpiece.
2.
Loosen the screw that secures the scale pointer and
adjust it to the thickness of the workpiece.

Dust.Scoops
The dust scoops and metal scoop plates are correctly
positioned on the top cover at the factory, however these
may loosen and move during shipping. Some trial and
error will be needed to adjust the dust scoops so they do
not contact the sanding drums.
To.adjust.a.dust.scoop,.do.these.steps:
1.
DISCONNECT POWER TO THE SANDER!
2.
Remove the handwheel and open the pulley cover.
3.
Loosen the button head cap screws and acorn
nuts securing a metal scoop plate to the top cover
(
Figure.62
), move the scoop up a little, tighten the
cap screws and nuts, close the top cover, and rotate
the V-belt to see if the drum srapes the scoop.
4.
Adjust each scoop in this manner until the sanding
drums do not scrape the scoops, then close the pul-
ley cover and reinstall the handwheel.
