SETTING UP YOUR DRUM SANDER
Your SuperMax Tools 19-38 sander should now be in place and ready for the final set-up. The sander was ad -
justed and aligned at the factory. However simple alignment checks will ensure that everything is in perfect order.
Problems can be avoided if these essential checks and set-up procedures are performed prior to operation.
CHECKING DRUM ALIGNMENT
Checking the alignment before using the sanding drum is necessary to make sure that the drum is parallel.
Remove the abrasive on the drum. Removing the abra-
sive is necessary to make sure that the adjustment is
as accurate as possible and the texture on the abra-
sive will make the adjustment imprecise.
Use a flat, uniform piece of wood as a thickness
gauge. Insert it between the conveyor belt and the
drum on the inboard (right) side of the machine.
The tension rollers are set just below the drum enough
so that items cannot pass easily underneath. Use the
height adjustment handle as necessary to ensure that
the piece of wood makes contact with the drum
Locate the height adjustment handle for raising and
lowering the sanding head.
NOTE: The height adjustment handle controls the drum
height. Turning the handle raises or lowers the sanding
head. One revolution of the handle raises or lowers the head
by 1/16 of an inch.
After you place the piece of wood between the
conveyor belt and the drum, rotate the height adjust-
ment handle up one full turn. After the height has been
adjusted the wood piece may be removed.
NOTE: You have to repeat these steps on the outboard (left)
side of the machine using the same procedure. As you
check look to make sure that the drum is parallel. A simple
visual check that the drum is parallel is sufficient.
