Adjustments

For your convenience, the adjustments listed

below have been performed at the factory and

no further setup is required to operate your

machine.

However, because of the many variables

involved with shipping, some of these adjust-

ments may need to be repeated to ensure opti-

mum results. Keep this in mind as you start to

use your new drum sander.

Step-by-step instructions for these adjust-

ments can be found in SERVICE.

1. V-Belt Tension (Page 33). Perform after

the first 16 hours.

2. Conveyor Tensioning & Tracking (Page 36).

3. Drum Adjustments (Page 38).

4. Pressure Roller Height (Page 42).

— If the top of the conveyor belt rotates

toward the front of the machine, it is

moving in the wrong direction. Stop the

machine, shut

OFF the power source,

then swap any two wires at the feed

motor relay (see

Figure 22). If the W1773

is connected to a phase converter, swap

the L2 and L3 wires to correct the con-

veyor belt rotation.

6. Press the CONVEYOR STOP button to stop

the machine.

7. Model W1772: Press the SANDING DRUMS

START and SANDING DRUMS STOP buttons.

The sanding drums should start, run, and

stop smoothly.

Model W1773: Verify that the power is

not connected out of phase by pressing the

SANDING DRUMS START button, using the

criteria below:

— If the drums rotate toward the back of

the machine, they are moving in the cor-

rect direction.

— If the drums rotate toward the front of

the machine, they are moving in the

wrong direction. Stop the machine, shut

OFF the power source, then swap any

two wires at the sanding drum motor

relay (see

Figure 22). If the W1773 is

connected to a phase converter, swap

the L2 and L3 wires to correct the sand-

ing belt rotation. (The "wild wire" is con-

nected to the L1 terminal.)

8. Press the EMERGENCY STOP button to stop

the machine.

9. WITHOUT resetting the switch, press the

CONVEYOR START button. The machine

should not start.

— If the machine does not start, the

EMERGENCY STOP button safety feature is

working correctly.

— If the machine DOES start (with the

EMERGENCY STOP button pushed in),

immediately disconnect power to the

machine.

The STOP button safety feature is not

working correctly. This safety feature

must work properly before proceed-

ing with regular operations. Call Tech

Support for help.

10. Reset the EMERGENCY STOP button.

11. Press the CONVEYOR START button, then

press the emergency stop bar. The sander

will come to a complete stop. The stop bar

should only be used during emergencies.

The emergency stop bar switch will wear

quicker if this feature is used for regular

shut down.

— If the conveyor belt does not come to a

complete stop, the emergency stop bar is

not working correctly, immediately dis-

connect power to the machine and call

Tech Support for help.
