BEFORE
To complete a typical operation, the operator
does the following:
1.
Examines workpiece to verify it is suitable for
sanding and to determine which sanding belt
grit size to use.
2.
Verifies workpiece has necessary outfeed
clearance and support. If workpiece is overly
long and difficult to handle, operator uses a
roller support stand to assist with feeding.
3.
Adjusts drum height to approximate workpiece
thickness.
4.
Puts on required safety glasses and
respirator, and ensures dust collection is
connected to dust port.
5.
Turns machine and dust collector ON.
6.
Feeds workpiece into sander by placing front
end on infeed side of conveyor table and
supporting back end until workpiece engages
with pressure rollers.
Note: During initial pass with new workpiece,
operator adjusts drum height as necessary
so workpiece only makes light contact with
sanding belt and does not overload sander.
7.
Stands to side of machine and receives
workpiece from outfeed side of conveyor
table.
8.
Rotates workpiece 180° horizontally and
repeats Steps 6–7.
9.
Lowers height of drum a small amount (typi-
cally
of a full rotation of handwheel), then
1
4
repeats feeding process of workpiece through
sander.
10. Disconnects from power, changes sandpaper
to finer grit, and connects to power to repeat
sanding passes as needed
11. Turns sander OFF, and disconnects it from
power.
