Machine Description
A drum sander is used to remove surface material
from stock using an abrasive belt that is wrapped
tightly around a drum.
A conveyor pulls the workpiece toward the sanding drum while pressure rollers hold the workpiece
steady, so the sanding drum can remove a thin
layer from the top of the workpiece.
On the G0459/G0459P, a crank handle is used to
control cutting depth and a variable speed knob
adjusts the conveyor speed for the specific type
of workpiece and finish.
The only difference between the Model G0459
and G0459P is the paint color.

Additional Safety for Drum Sanders
FEEDING STOCK. Do not stand in the direct
path of a workpiece at the infeed end when feeding your stock. Never sand more than one piece
of stock at a time. DO NOT jam the workpiece
into the machine during operation. Firmly grasp
the workpiece in both hands and ease it into the
machine using light pressure.
MINIMUM STOCK DIMENSIONS. Do not sand
any stock thinner than
shorter than 8". Do not sand thin stock by using a
“dummy” board under your workpiece.
SAFETY COVERS. All covers must be closed
and in place before starting machine.
CLOTHING. Do not wear loose clothing while
operating this machine. Roll up or button long
sleeves at the cuff.
HAND PROTECTION. Do not place hands near,
or in contact with, sanding drum during operation.
DO NOT allow fingers to get pinched between
board and conveyor belt during operation. This
may pull the operator’s hand into the machine and
cause serious injury!
DUST COLLECTION SYSTEM. Never operate
the sander without an adequate dust collection
system in place and running.
1
⁄8", narrower than 2", or
INSPECTING WORKPIECES. Always inspect
every workpiece for nails, staples, knots, and
other imperfections that could be dislodged and
thrown from the machine during sanding operations. Do not use workpieces with these defects.
EXPERIENCING DIFFICULTIES. Any problem,
with the exception of conveyor belt tracking, that
is concerned with any moving parts or accessories, must be investigated and corrected with the
power disconnected, and after all moving parts
have come to a complete stop.
MAINTENANCE AND ADJUSTMENTS. Never
attempt to adjust conveyor belt tracking when the
sanding drum is running.
Perform machine inspections and maintenance
service promptly when called for. Disconnect
power before performing maintenance or adjustments to the sander.
RESPIRATOR AND SAFETY GLASSES. Always
wear a respirator and safety glasses while operating the machine. Dust and chips are created when
sanding. Some debris will be ejected, becoming
hazards to the eyes and lungs.

SECTION 2: POWER SUPPLY
Before installing the machine, consider the availability and proximity of the required power supply
circuit. If an existing circuit does not meet the
requirements for this machine, a new circuit must
be installed. To minimize the risk of electrocution,
fire, or equipment damage, installation work and
electrical wiring must be done by an electrican or
qualified service personnel in accordance with all
applicable codes and standards.
Electrocution, fire, or
equipment damage may
occur if machine is not
correctly grounded and
connected to the power
The full-load current rating is the amperage a
machine draws at 100% of the rated output power.
On machines with multiple motors, this is the
amperage drawn by the largest motor or sum of all
motors and electrical devices that might operate
at one time during normal operations.
The full-load current is not the maximum amount
of amps that the machine will draw. If the machine
is overloaded, it will draw additional amps beyond
the full-load rating.
If the machine is overloaded for a sufficient length
of time, damage, overheating, or fire may result—
especially if connected to an undersized circuit.
To reduce the risk of these hazards, avoid overloading the machine during operation and make
sure it is connected to a power supply circuit that
meets the requirements in the following section.
For your own safety and protection of
Note: The circuit requirements listed in this manual apply to a dedicated circuit—where only one
machine will be running at a time. If this machine
will be connected to a shared circuit where multiple machines will be running at the same time,
consult a qualified electrician to ensure that the
circuit is properly sized for safe operation.
A power supply circuit includes all electrical
equipment between the breaker box or fuse panel
in the building and the machine. The power supply circuit used for this machine must be sized to
safely handle the full-load current drawn from the
machine for an extended period of time. (If this
machine is connected to a circuit protected by
fuses, use a time delay fuse marked D.)
This machine is prewired to operate on a 115V
power supply circuit that has a verified ground and
meets the following requirements:

Improper connection of the equipment-grounding
wire can result in a risk of electric shock. The
wire with green insulation (with or without yellow
stripes) is the equipment-grounding wire. If repair
or replacement of the power cord or plug is necessary, do not connect the equipment-grounding
wire to a live (current carrying) terminal.
Check with a qualified electrician or service personnel if you do not understand these grounding
requirements, or if you are in doubt about whether
the tool is properly grounded. If you ever notice
that a cord or plug is damaged or worn, disconnect it from power, and immediately replace it with
a new one.
We do not recommend using an extension cord
with this machine.
cord, only use it if absolutely necessary and only
on a temporary basis.
Extension cords cause voltage drop, which may
damage electrical components and shorten motor
life. Voltage drop increases as the extension cord
size gets longer and the gauge size gets smaller
(higher gauge numbers indicate smaller sizes).
Any extension cord used with this machine must
contain a ground wire, match the required plug
and receptacle, and meet the following requirements:
Grounding & Plug Requirements
Serious injury could occur if you connect
it will not fit the outlet, have a qualified
electrician install the proper outlet with a
This machine MUST be grounded. In the event
of certain malfunctions or breakdowns, grounding
reduces the risk of electric shock by providing a
path of least resistance for electric current.
This machine is equipped with a power cord that
has an equipment-grounding wire and a grounding plug (similar to the figure below). The plug
must only be inserted into a matching receptacle
(outlet) that is properly installed and grounded in
accordance with all local codes and ordinances.

Site Considerations
Weight Load
Physical Environment
Place this machine near an existing power source.
Shadows, glare, or strobe effects that may distract
Refer to the Machine Data Sheet for the weight
of your machine. Make sure that the surface upon
which the machine is placed will bear the weight
of the machine, additional equipment that may be
installed on the machine, and the heaviest workpiece that will be used. Additionally, consider the
weight of the operator and any dynamic loading
that may occur when operating the machine.
Space Allocation
Consider the largest size of workpiece that will
be processed through this machine and provide
enough space around the machine for adequate
operator material handling or the installation of
auxiliary equipment. With permanent installations,
leave enough space around the machine to open
or remove doors/covers as required by the maintenance and service described in this manual.
See below for required space allocation.
Children or untrained people
may be seriously injured by
this machine. Only install in an
access restricted location.
The physical environment where the machine is
operated is important for safe operation and longevity of machine components. For best results,
operate this machine in a dry environment that is
free from excessive moisture, hazardous chemicals, airborne abrasives, or extreme conditions.
Extreme conditions for this type of machinery are
generally those where the ambient temperature
range exceeds 41°–104°F; the relative humidity
range exceeds 20–95% (non-condensing); or the
environment is subject to vibration, shocks, or
bumps.
Electrical Installation
Make sure all power cords are protected from
traffic, material handling, moisture, chemicals,
or other hazards. Make sure to leave access to
a means of disconnecting the power source or
engaging a lockout/tagout device, if required.

DO NOT operate the Model G0459/G0459P
without an adequate dust collection system.
This sander creates substantial amounts of
wood dust while operating. Failure to use a
dust collection system can result in short
and long-term respiratory illness.
Recommended CFM at Dust Port: 150 CFM
Do not confuse this CFM recommendation with
the rating of the dust collector. To determine the
CFM at the dust port, you must consider these
variables: (1) CFM rating of the dust collector,
(2) hose type and length between the dust collector and the machine, (3) number of branches
or wyes, and (4) amount of other open lines
throughout the system. Explaining how to calculate these variables is beyond the scope of
this manual. Consult an expert or purchase a
good dust collection "how-to" book.

• Raise the table with a maximum of
the crank handle until the workpiece is the
desired thickness.

Stock Inspection and
Requirements
Some workpieces are not safe or may require
modification before they are safe to sand. Before
sanding, inspect all workpieces for the following:
• 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 prevent uneven conveyor belt wear.
• DO NOT sand boards less than 8" long or
less than
workpiece and the drum sander.
• Extend the life of the sandpaper by regularly
using a PRO-STICK
24).
• When sanding workpieces with irregular surfaces, such as cabinet doors, take very light
sanding passes to prevent gouges. When
the drum moves from sanding 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.

• Material Type: This machine is intended for
ONLY sanding natural and man-made wood
products. This machine is NOT designed
to sand metal, glass, stone, tile, drywall or
cementitious backerboard.
• Foreign Objects: Nails, staples, dirt, rocks
and other foreign objects are often embedded in wood. While sanding, these objects
can become dislodged and tear the sandpaper. Always visually inspect your workpiece
for these items. If they can't be removed, DO
NOT sand the workpiece.
• Excessive glue or finish: Sanding
workpieces with excess glue or finish will load
up the abrasive, reducing its usefulness and
lifespan.
• Workpiece Dimensions: DO NOT sand
boards less than 8" long, 2" wide and
thick to prevent damage to the workpiece to
reduce the risk of your hands contacting the
sandpaper (see Figure 14).
1
⁄8"
• DO NOT edge sand boards. This can cause
boards to kickback, causing serious personal
injury. Edge sanding 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 scratches for the finish passes.

Model G0459/G0459P (Mfg. 7/11+)
Depth of Cut
The optimum depth of cut will vary based on
the type of wood, feed rate, and sandpaper grit.
Under most sanding conditions, the depth should
not exceed 0.006" (0.15 mm) (approx.
the handwheel). Each full turn of the crank handle
raises the conveyor table approximately 0.027"
(0.69 mm). Attempts to remove too much material
can cause jamming, wood burning, rapid paper
wear or tearing, poor finish, belt slippage, and
motor damage.
To set the depth of cut:
1. Rotate the crank handle (Figure 15) until
the conveyor table is well below the sanding
drum, place the workpiece on the table, then
raise the table, until the front pressure roller
just touches the top of the workpiece.
Note: When adjusting the table to sand a
thicker workpiece, lower and then raise the
table to remove backlash from the adjustment mechanism. If the table is lowered too
far, the conveyor belt may rub against the
chain, leaving grease on the belt.

Handle
Figure 15. Setting depth of cut.
2. Turn the sander ON, start the conveyor (see
Variable Speed on Page 22), and feed the
workpiece into the sander. SLOWLY raise
the conveyor table until the workpiece makes
light contact with the sanding drum. This
is the correct height to begin sanding the
workpiece.
Model G0459/G0459P (Mfg. 7/11+)
-21-
The variable speed knob allows you to increase
the feed rate from 2.47–17.3 FPM. The correct
speed to use depends on the type of stock you
are using (hardwood vs. softwood) and the stage
of finish you are at with that workpiece.
As a general rule, a slower feed rate sands the
surface smoother, but runs the risk of burning the
wood; a faster feed rate removes material faster,
but runs the risk of overloading the motor.
Use trial-and-error to determine the best settings
for your specific applications.
SandingVariable Speed
DO NOT sand more than one board at a time.
Minor variations in thickness can cause one
board to be propelled by the rapidly spinning
sanding drum and ejected from the machine.
NEVER stand directly in front of the outfeed
area of the machine. Failure to do so could
result in severe personal injury.
To sand a workpiece:
To adjust the conveyor speed:
1. Start the conveyor.
2. Rotate the variable speed knob (Figure
16) clockwise to increase the feed speed,
or counterclockwise to decrease the feed
speed.
1. Adjust the table height according to the
instructions in Depth of Cut on Page 21.
2. Start the dust collector, turn the sander ON,
and start the conveyor.
3. Feed the workpiece through the sander.
Retrieve the workpiece by standing at the
side—not at the outfeed end.
4. Run wide stock through two or three times
without adjusting the table height. Turn the
stock 180° between passes to ensure an
even cut.

Choosing Sandpaper
There are many types of sanding belts to choose
from. We recommend aluminum oxide for general workshop environments. Below is a chart
that groups abrasives into different classes, and
shows which grits fall into each class.
Grit Class Usage
36 Extra Coarse Rough sawn boards,
thickness sanding,
and glue removal.
60 Coarse Thickness sanding
and glue removal.
80–100 Medium Removing planer
marks and initial finish
sanding.
120 –180 Fine Finish sanding.
The general rule of thumb is to sand a workpiece
with progressively higher grit numbers, with no
one grit increase of more than 50. Avoid skipping
grits; the larger the grit increase, the harder it will
be to remove the scratches from the previous
grit.
Ultimately, the type of wood you use and your
stage of finish will determine the best grit types to
install on your sander.
4. Use the old sandpaper as a pattern to cut
out the new sandpaper, or use the pattern in
Figure 17, to cut the sandpaper to the neces-
sary shape.
Figure 17. Sandpaper pattern.
5. Wrap the sanding drum with the new sandpa-
per. Make sure to wrap the sandpaper tight
and try to keep the gaps to a minimum.

SECTION 6: MAINTENANCE
Lubrication
Always disconnect power
to the machine before
performing maintenance.
Failure to do this may
result in serious personal injur y.
An essential part of lubrication is cleaning the
components before lubricating them.
This step is critical because dust and chips build
up on lubricated components, which makes them
hard to move. Simply adding more grease to builtup grime will not result in smooth moving parts.
Schedule
For optimum performance from your machine,
follow this maintenance schedule and refer to any
specific instructions given in this section.
Daily Check:
• Loose mounting bolts.
• Worn switch.
• Worn or damaged cords or plugs.
• Damaged V-belt.
• Any other unsafe condition.
DO NOT attempt to investigate or adjust
any features of the machine while it is running. Wait until the machine is turned OFF,
unplugged, and all working parts have come
to a rest before you do anything!
DISCONNECT POWER TO SANDER BEFORE
PERFORMING LUBRICATION!
Chain
Clean the chain with mineral spirits and a brush
or rag, then apply light machine oil to the chain.
Turn the hand crank to move the conveyor up or
down to distribute the oil. Do not apply too much
oil, as it will attract dirt and sawdust and will clog
the chain mechanism.
Table Lift
Screw
Chain
Cleaning
Cleaning the Model G0459/G0459P is relatively
easy. From time to time, vacuum wood dust off of
the internal components, especially the motor.
Model G0459/G0459P (Mfg. 7/11+)
Figure 21. Chain and table lift screws lubrication
locations.
Table Lift Screws
These should be lubricated with lithium grease
every six months.
Use mineral spirits and a stiff brush to clean the
table lift screws (Figure 21), then paint lithium
grease onto the threads. Move the table up or
down to spread the grease thoroughly over the
threads.
-25-
Pillow Block Bearings
These must be lubricated every 20 hours of
operation. Use a grease gun to pump one or two
shots of a high-quality grease into each grease fitting (Figure 22), located on the top of each pillow
block bearing.
Figure 22. Location to lubricate pillow block
bearing.
Failure to routinely inspect your drum sander
for damage and wear could result in unsatisfactory work results, premature component
or machinery failure, or operator injury. We
recommend you create a checklist for routine
inspection and maintenance. Remember to
always disconnect the drum sander from its
power source before attempting to inspect,
adjust, or repair this machine!

Tension
A new V-belt often stretches and loosens up during the first 16 hours of use. After this period, it
should be inspected and re-tensioned if necessar y.
Proper tension is important for optimum power
transmission. However, too much tension may
cause premature bearing failure.
To test V-belt tension:
1. Remove the right handle and side panel.
2. Using a straightedge and ruler (Figure 25),
push on the middle of the V-belt. The correct
V-belt tension is achieved when the V-belt
can be deflected

To adjust V-belt tension:
1. DISCONNECT POWER TO THE SANDER!
2. Open the rear panel.
Pulley Alignment
Pulley alignment is another important factor in
power transmission and belt life. The pulleys
should be parallel to each other and in the same
plane (coplaner) for optimum performance.
3. Loosen the motor mount bolts and raise or
lower the motor bracket, as shown in Figure
26, to loosen or tighten the V-belt.
4. Tighten the motor mount bolts and replace
the rear panel.

Bolts
Each pulley can be adjusted by loosening the set
screws that secure the pulley to the shaft, sliding
the pulley in/out, and retightening the set screws
to lock the pulley in place.
To align the pulleys:
1. DISCONNECT POWER TO THE SANDER!
2. Remove the right handle and side panel.
3. Remove the V-belt.
4. Place a straightedge across the face of the
motor pulley and drum pulley to check the
alignment. The straightedge should sit evenly
on the top and bottom part of both pulleys, as
shown in Figure 27.
Removal/Replacement
Replace the V-belt if you notice fraying, cracking,
glazing, or any other damage. A worn/damaged
V-belt will not provide optimum power transmission from the motor to the drums.
V-belt removal and replacement is simply a matter
of loosening the V-belt, rolling it off of the pulleys,
replacing it, and re-tensioning it.

Conveyor Tensioning
& Tracking
2. Turn both of the conveyor adjustment bolts
counterclockwise one full turn at a time until
the conveyor belt no longer slips during
operation.
Tools Needed: Qty
Wrench 19mm ................................................... 1

Tensioning
The conveyor may slightly stretch with continued
use and will eventually need to be tensioned. This
is most obvious if the conveyor starts slipping on
the rollers.
When you tension the conveyor, focus on tensioning the adjustment bolts in even increments.
Tensioning one side more than the other will
cause tracking problems, which will require you to
take additional steps to get the sander operating
correctly.
To tension the conveyor:
1. Use a magic marker, correction fluid, or
fingernail polish to mark the front of the conveyor tensioning bolt on both sides (Figure
28). This step will aid you in keeping track
of the rotations as you turn the bolts, so they
remain as even as possible.
—If the conveyor starts tracking to one side,
immediately turn the drum sander OFF and
perform the tracking instructions.
Tracking
The conveyor must track straight. If the conveyor
tracks to either side, then the tracking must be
corrected or the conveyor will become damaged
and have to be replaced.
Replacing a damaged conveyor is a big job.
Always be careful to make sure that the belt does
not travel too far to one side or the other.
Tracking the conveyor is a balancing process that
takes patience and a small degree of trial-anderror. Usually you must over-tighten the loose side
(the side the belt is tracking towards) to make the
conveyor move to the middle of the rollers, then
loosen that same side to make the conveyor stay
in position. If you adjust the bolt too much either
way, then you have to repeat the process until the
conveyor rides in the middle and stays there during continuous operation.
To track the conveyor:

1. Turn the conveyor ON and watch it track.
2. Determine which side the conveyor is track-
ing towards (the loose side) and tension the
adjustment bolt on that side until the conveyor tracks in the opposite direction.
Note: Tracking changes may take up to three
minutes before they are noticeable.
3. When the conveyor is near the middle of the
rollers or table, loosen the adjustment bolt
until the conveyor stops moving and tracks
straight.
—If the conveyor tracks too far to the other
side, then adjust the bolt as necessary to
bring it back and repeat Steps 2 & 3 until
the tracking is correct.

For the Model G0459/G0459P Drum Sander
to function properly, the sanding drum must be
aligned in two directions: (1) parallel to the conveyor belt (see Figure 29 below) and (2) perpendicular to feed direction (see Figure 30).
Sanding Drum
While adjusting the drum, keep in mind that having the drum parallel to the conveyor belt is critical
to the sanding operation. Care should be taken to
make the tolerances as close as possible (within
0.002" from one side to the other) when adjusting
the drum height.
The tolerances for having the drum perpendicular
to the feed direction are much more forgiving,
even allowing up to
to the other before causing problems.
To align the sanding drum parallel to the conveyor belt:
1. DISCONNECT POWER TO THE SANDER!
2. Open the top cover.
3. Loosen the lock nuts (see Figure 31) on the
drum pillow block bearing.

4. Place the gauge blocks on the conveyor table
and position them under the pressure rollers,
as shown in Figure 32.
Figure 32. Gauge blocks positioned under
pressure rollers and sanding drum.
5. Raise the table until the gauge blocks just
touch the bottom of the sanding drum.
Note: A good way to know when they are
touching is to rock the sanding drum back
and forth while raising the table until you hear
or feel contact with the gauge blocks.
6. Lower the table one full turn of the crank handle. Wait until the chain starts moving before
starting to count the crank handle rotation.
7. Starting at one end, place a 0.002" feeler
gauge between the sanding drum and the
gauge block. (The feeler gauge should slide
with moderate resistance, without forcing the
drum to roll.)
2. Rotate the setscrews
1
⁄8 of a turn clockwise to
raise the pillow block bearings (see Figure
31).
Note: Turn all setscrew sets an equal
amount.
3. Tighten the lock nuts and recheck the alignment using the gauge blocks, repeating Steps
1–8 from the previous subsection. Tightening
the lock nuts will pull the drum downward
slightly. Be sure to adjust to compensate
for this movement. Do not over tighten the
lock nuts. The pillow block bearings can
break if over tightened.
To adjust the sanding drum perpendicular to
the feed direction:
1. DISCONNECT POWER TO THE SANDER!
2. First measure the distance between the out-
side of the drum and the inside of the dust
scoop (Figure 33). The distances should be
1
within
⁄8" of each other at each end of the
drum.
Brace

8. Repeat Step 7 at the other end of the drum.
—If the difference between the two sides is
0.002" or less, skip to the subsection that
covers how to adjust the sanding drum
perpendicular to the feed direction on this
page.
— If the difference between the two sides is
more than 0.002", then one side must be
adjusted to within 0.002" of the other (with
the ultimate goal of making them dead
even). Continue to the next step.
To adjust the pillow block bearings:
1. Loosen the lock nuts (see Figure 31) on
one of the pillow block bearings that requires
adjustment.
-34-
Figure 33. Measuring distance between drum
and dust scoop.
3. If the measurements are not within 1⁄8", the
drum can be moved by loosening the lock
nuts on the pillow block bearings and moving
one end of the drum forward or backward as
necessary in the slotted holes.
Note: After you have adjusted the drum, do
not forget to tighten the lock nuts and recheck
the alignment by repeating Steps 1–3.

However, you can only minimize snipe so much
before the workpiece will slip or kick out, causing
a hazard to the operator. If this happens, you have
raised the pressure rollers too high for them to
function as intended—the pressure rollers MUST
be lowered to prevent injury.
Factory Setting:
Distance Below Sanding Drum ......0.080" (2mm)
The pressure rollers are factory set at 0.080"
(2mm) below the bottom of the sanding drum
and are fully adjustable either up/down with the
four lower adjustment bolts (Figure 34). After
the adjustment has been made, always lock the
jam nuts against the bottom to prevent them from
moving.
Roller Mount

Lower Adjustment Bolts
Raising the pressure rollers too high to minimize snipe will cause the workpiece to slip
or kick out, causing a hazard to the operator. You MUST lower the pressure rollers to
prevent injury!
These instructions will restore the pressure rollers
to the factory setting.
To adjust the pressure rollers to the factory
setting:
1. DISCONNECT POWER TO THE SANDER!
2. Open the top cover.
3. Place the gauge blocks on the conveyor table
and position them under all the pressure rollers (Figure 32).
4. Raise the table so the gauge blocks touch
the bottom of the sanding drum, as shown in
Figure 35.
Figure 34. Pressure roller adjustment hex nuts.
Proper pressure on the workpiece helps avoid
kickback and keeps the workpiece from slipping. However, as pressure increases on the
workpiece, snipe also increases (some degree of
snipe is normal with all drum sanders).
If snipe becomes a problem, you can minimize it
by reducing pressure. To lower pressure, turn the
lower adjustment bolts counterclockwise to raise
the pressure roller height. To increase pressure,
turn the lower adjustment bolts clockwise (lowering pressure rollers).

5. Turn the crank handle three full rotations
(counting from the point of actual table movement so handwheel freeplay does not affect
your count) to lower the table so the gauge
blocks are below the pressure rollers, as
shown in Figure 36.
Figure 37. Pressure rollers set correct distance
below bottom of sanding drum.
9. Tighten the jam nuts (Figure 34) to lock the
adjustment.

Note: You may open the side covers to gain better
access for the following adjustments. This is not
required.
6. Turn a lower adjustment bolt on one side of a
pressure roller clockwise to lower that end of
the pressure roller until it touches the gauge
block.
7. Repeat Step 6 for the opposite side of the
same pressure roller.
8. Repeat Steps 6–7 with the second pressure
roller. Each pressure roller should look like
Figure 37 when properly adjusted.

In order for the scale pointer to be accurate, it
must be calibrated.
We recommend calibrating your scale pointer
any time you adjust the drum height or table lift
screws.
To calibrate the scale pointer:
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.

The table lift screws are connected by a chain and
driven by the crank handle. (When the chain is
removed from a sprocket on one of the lift screws,
that lift screw can adjust that portion of the table
up/down independently to assist in setting the
table parallel to the drum.)
Adjusting the table lift screws will only be necessary if you need to adjust the drum height more
than allowed at the pillow block bearing adjustments, or if you have removed the table or chain
(see Page 41) during a service procedure and you
need to reset the drum parallel to the table.
Figure 38. Marking sprocket tooth and chain.
5. Loosen the chain by loosening the hex nut on
the bottom of the idler roller sprocket shown
in Figure 39.
Each complete tooth rotation on the sprocket represents 0.007" or .18mm of table elevation movement. For example, if the rear of the table was
0.007" low, rotate both rear table lift screws to the
next sprocket tooth in the same chain position.
You can easily rotate the sprockets from the top of
the table lift screws with a flat head screwdriver.
To adjust the table lift screws:
1. DISCONNECT POWER TO THE SANDER!
2. Open the right side and front panels.
3. Raise the table up to at least the 1" mark on
the height scale.
4. At the lift screw that needs to be adjusted,
mark the end of a sprocket tooth and the
chain hole where that tooth is meshed, as
shown in Figure 38.
NOTICE
Marking chain and sprocket locations will
save you a substantial amount of time when
you re-install the chain. Make sure you have
done this before removing the chain.
Figure 39. Idler roller sprocket.
6. Carefully move the chain off of only the
marked sprocket.
7. Keep track of the marked chain hole and
rotate the sprocket the necessary number of
teeth away from the marked one to meet the
difference in height needed.
8. Fit the chain back over the sprocket, making
sure the new sprocket tooth is inserted into
the marked chain hole.
9. Re-tension the chain and check the new
height setting.
10. Repeat Steps 5–9 as needed until the table
height is parallel to the drums in all four corners, tighten the idler sprocket and calibrate
the scale pointer.

Replacing the conveyor belt is a big job and
requires moderate mechanical skill and a fair
amount of patience. For planning purposes, expect
to have your machine out of operation for at least
a few hours.
As you remove hardware to complete these
instructions, we recommend putting all the bolts,
screws, washers, etc. back into the holes from
which they came. This simple habit will take slightly longer when disassembling the machine, but it
will save you a lot of time and reduce frustration
during reassembly.
To replace the conveyor belt:
1. DISCONNECT POWER TO THE SANDER!
2. Remove the top cover by loosening the hex
bolts and removing the Phillips head screws
(Figure 40) securing the top cover support.

SHOCK HAZARD. Working on wiring that is connected to a power source is extremely dangerous.
Touching electrified parts will result in personal
injury including but not limited to severe burns,
electrocution, or death. Disconnect the power
from the machine before servicing electrical components!
MODIFICATIONS. Modifying the wiring beyond
what is shown in the diagram may lead to unpredictable results, including serious injury or fire.
This includes the installation of unapproved aftermarket parts.
WIRE CONNECTIONS. All connections must
be tight to prevent wires from loosening during
machine operation. Double-check all wires disconnected or connected during any wiring task to
ensure tight connections.
CIRCUIT REQUIREMENTS. You MUST follow
the requirements at the beginning of this manual when connecting your machine to a power
source.
WIRE/COMPONENT DAMAGE. Damaged wires
or components increase the risk of serious personal injury, fire, or machine damage. If you notice
that any wires or components are damaged while
performing a wiring task, replace those wires or
components.
MOTOR WIRING. The motor wiring shown in
these diagrams is current at the time of printing
but may not match your machine. If you find this
to be the case, use the wiring diagram inside the
motor junction box.
CAPACITORS/INVERTERS. Some capacitors
and power inverters store an electrical charge for
up to 10 minutes after being disconnected from
the power source. To reduce the risk of being
shocked, wait at least this long before working on
capacitors.
EXPERIENCING DIFFICULTIES. If you are experiencing difficulties understanding the information
included in this section, contact our Technical
Support at (570) 546-9663.
