    Using The Drum Sander Drum Height Adjustment Dust Extraction Outlet Drum Access Cover Height Reading Scale Removeable End Plate Drum Height Lock On/Off Switch Conveyor Speed Control Conveyor Belt End Plate Operating The Sander Drum Sander Vs Thicknesser Drum sanding gradually removes material in increments of 0.8mm or less depending on sanding grit, stock hardness, stock width, etc.
  • Page 9 Be patient, let the drum sander do the work: 0.8mm or less per pass for best results. The most common mistake made with a drum sander is forcing it to remove too much material too fast. Variables such as sandpaper grit, stock width, wood type, feed rate, and moisture content all influence how much material can be removed in a single pass.
  • Page 10 Drum Height The height of the drum is raised by turning the handwheel in a clockwise direction. To lower the drum, turn the handwheel in a counterclockwise direction. The depth of the movement is approximately 0.4mm per 1/4 turn in either direction. One complete turn is 1.6mm. Depth settings can be measured using the height reading scale.
  • Page 11 Sanding Wrap Replacement The most convenient way to buy sandpaper wraps is to use the precut type which come with the tapered ends ready to install. The other option is to buy a roll of 82mm wide sandpaper and cut the tapers yourself. The template below gives the dimensions for the tapers.
  • Page 12 Stand in front of the drum and radially wrap the abrasive material. Roll the drum away from you, whilst keeping some tension on the abrasive wrap and guide it onto the drum. The edge of the taper should be parallel to the edge of the drum.
  • Page 13: Servicing And Maintenance

    Servicing And Maintenance Conveyor Belt Tracking Adjustment Occasional adjustment of the conveyor belt tracking may be required due to belt stretching. Ideally, the conveyor feed belt should track in the center of the table. Adjustment nuts are located on both sides of the outfeed end of the conveyor.
  • Page 14 Use a 6mm Allen key to completely remove the 2 bolts on the open side which secure the table to the sub frame. Reduce tension on the conveyor feed belt by rotating both the left and right belt tracking nuts in a counterclockwise direction.
  • Page 15: Troubleshooting

    Excess Movement in the Floating End of the Drum If movement is detected, check the tightness of the 2 Clamp Bolts. Adjusted the bolts to allow smooth height adjustments, while ensuring a tight enough fit to limit drum deflection. If the screws are too loose, the drum will deflect during use, causing an uneven sanding surface.
