Sanding Tips
• Replace the sandpaper with a higher grit to achieve
a finer finish.
•
Raise the table with a maximum of
3
/
4
turn of the
height handle until the workpiece is the desired
thickness.
• Reduce snipe when sanding more than one board of
the same thickness by feeding them into the sander
with the front end of the second board touching the
back end of the first board.
• Feed boards into the sander at different points on
the conveyor to maximize sandpaper life and pre-
vent uneven conveyor belt wear.
• Replace the sandpaper with a higher grit to achieve
a finer finish.
•
Raise the table with a maximum of
3
/
4
turn of the
height handle until the workpiece is the desired
thickness.
• DO NOT sand boards less than 9" long or less than
1
/
16
" to prevent damage to the workpiece and the
drum sander.
• Extend the life of the sandpaper by regularly using a
PRO-STICK® sanding pad ( Page 29 ).
• When sanding workpieces with irregular surfaces,
such as cabinet doors, take very light sanding passes
to prevent gouges. When the drum moves from sand-
ing a wide surface to sanding a narrow surface, the
load on the motor will be reduced, and the drum
will speed up, causing a gouge.
• DO NOT edge sand boards. This can cause boards to
kickback, causing serious personal injury. Edge sand-
ing boards also can cause damage to the conveyor
belt and sandpaper.
• When sanding workpieces with a bow or crown,
place the high point up (prevents the workpiece
from rocking) and take very light passes.
• Feed the workpiece at an angle to maximize stock
removal and sandpaper effectiveness, but feed the
workpiece straight to reduce sandpaper grit scratch-
es for the finish passes.
