Failure to routinely inspect your drum sander for
damage and wear could result in unsatisfactory work
results, premature component or machinery failure,
or operator injury. We recommend you create a
checklist for routine inspection and maintenance.
Remember to always disconnect the drum sander
from its power source before attempting to inspect,
adjust, or repair this machine!
