The dial attached to the side of the feed belt
gear box (
Figure 16) adjusts the feed rate of the
sander.
Note: Never adjust the feed rate dial unless the
conveyor belt is running, otherwise you can dam-
age the control.
Changing Feed Ra te: Turn the dial clockwise to
decrease the feed rate and counterclockwise to
increase it.
Determining Ideal Feed Ra tes: Softwoods typi-
cally require a faster feed rate than hardwoods;
however, there is no definitive rule to follow when
determining the best feed rate. As a general rule,
always start with the slowest feed rate and work
your way up. We always recommend testing the
feed rate using scrap wood similar to your work-
piece. Be sure to monitor the amperage meter
when adjusting the feed rate. Decrease the feed
rate if the load amperage level shown on the load
meter is enters the yellow zone or sanding RPM
begins to slow.
