Plug the short power cord that is attached to the mo-

tor into the outlet on the control box. This cord will pro-

vide switched power for the motor when the machine 

is plugged into the power source.

Check your power supply to make sure that it is ade-

quate (110V, 15 A, 20 Amp service required) but do not 

plug the machine into the power supply until it is fully 

set-up.

INSTALLING YOUR SUPERMAX TOOLS DRUM SANDER (CONTINUED) 

 

SETTING UP YOUR DRUM SANDER 

 

Your SuperMax Tools 16-32 sander should now be in place and ready for the final set-up. The sander was ad-

justed and aligned at the factory. However simple alignment checks will ensure that everything is in perfect order. 

Problems can be avoided if these essential checks and set-up procedures are performed prior to operation. 
CHECKING DRUM ALIGNMENT 

 

During initial set-up only, checking the alignment before using the sanding drum is necessary to make sure that 

the drum is parallel.

Remove the abrasive from the drum. This is necessary 

to make sure that the adjustment is as accurate as 

possible and the texture on the abrasive will make the 

adjustment imprecise. 

Before checking drum alignment make sure that the 

fast lever between the conveyor motor and the unit is 

in the up position.

The conveyor table bolts on the inboard side should not be 

so tight that the Fast Lever does not rotate – see first note 

on page #17.
