NOTICE

Safety Instructions for Machinery

SECTION 1: SAFETY

Model G0458 (Mfg. Since 5/11)

-7-

WEARING PROPER APPAREL. Do not wear

clothing, apparel or jewelry that can become

entangled in moving parts. Always tie back or

cover long hair. Wear non-slip footwear to reduce

risk of slipping and losing control or accidentally

contacting cutting tool or moving parts.

HAZARDOUS DUST. Dust created by machinery

operations may cause cancer, birth defects, or

long-term respiratory damage. Be aware of dust

hazards associated with each workpiece mate-

rial. Always wear a NIOSH-approved respirator to

reduce your risk.

HEARING PROTECTION. Always wear hear-

ing protection when operating or observing loud

machinery. Extended exposure to this noise

without hearing protection can cause permanent

hearing loss.

REMOVE ADJUSTING TOOLS. Tools left on

machinery can become dangerous projectiles

upon startup. Never leave chuck keys, wrenches,

or any other tools on machine. Always verify

removal before starting!

USE CORRECT TOOL FOR THE JOB. Only use

this tool for its intended purpose—do not force

it or an attachment to do a job for which it was

not designed. Never make unapproved modifica-

tions—modifying tool or using it differently than

intended may result in malfunction or mechanical

failure that can lead to personal injury or death!

AWKWARD POSITIONS. Keep proper footing

and balance at all times when operating machine.

Do not overreach! Avoid awkward hand positions

that make workpiece control difficult or increase

the risk of accidental injury.

CHILDREN & BYSTANDERS. Keep children and

bystanders at a safe distance from the work area.

Stop using machine if they become a distraction.

GUARDS & COVERS. Guards and covers reduce

accidental contact with moving parts or flying

debris. Make sure they are properly installed,

undamaged, and working correctly BEFORE

operating machine.

FORCING MACHINERY. Do not force machine.

It will do the job safer and better at the rate for

which it was designed.

NEVER STAND ON MACHINE. Serious injury

may occur if machine is tipped or if the cutting

tool is unintentionally contacted.

STABLE MACHINE. Unexpected movement dur-

ing operation greatly increases risk of injury or

loss of control. Before starting, verify machine is

stable and mobile base (if used) is locked.

USE RECOMMENDED ACCESSORIES. Consult

this owner’s manual or the manufacturer for rec-

ommended accessories. Using improper acces-

sories will increase the risk of serious injury.

UNATTENDED OPERATION. To reduce the

risk of accidental injury, turn machine OFF and

ensure all moving parts completely stop before

walking away. Never leave machine running

while unattended.

MAINTAIN WITH CARE. Follow all maintenance

instructions and lubrication schedules to keep

machine in good working condition. A machine

that is improperly maintained could malfunction,

leading to serious personal injury or death.

DAMAGED PARTS. Regularly inspect machine

for damaged, loose, or mis-adjusted parts—or

any condition that could affect safe operation.

Immediately repair/replace BEFORE operating

machine. For your own safety, DO NOT operate

machine with damaged parts!

MAINTAIN POWER CORDS. When disconnect-

ing cord-connected machines from power, grab

and pull the plug—NOT the cord. Pulling the cord

may damage the wires inside. Do not handle

cord/plug with wet hands. Avoid cord damage by

keeping it away from heated surfaces, high traffic

areas, harsh chemicals, and wet/damp locations.

EXPERIENCING DIFFICULTIES. If at any time

you experience difficulties performing the intend-

ed operation, stop using the machine! Contact our

Additional Safety for Drum Sanders

No list of safety guidelines can be complete.

Every shop environment is different. Always

consider safety first, as it applies to your

individual working conditions. Use this and

other machinery with caution and respect.

Failure to do so could result in serious per-

sonal injury, damage to equipment, or poor

work results.

Like all machines there is danger associated

with this machine. Accidents are frequently

caused by lack of familiarity or failure to pay

attention. Use this machine with respect

and caution to lessen the possibility of

operator injury. If normal safety precautions

are overlooked or ignored, serious personal

injury may occur.

FEEDING STOCK. Do not allow anyone to stand

in the path of the workpiece at the outfeed end

when feeding your stock. Never sand more than

one piece of stock at a time. Do not jam the

workpiece into the machine during operation.

Firmly grasp the workpiece in both hands and

ease it into the machine using light pressure.

MINIMUM STOCK DIMENSIONS. Do not sand

any stock thinner than

⁄8", narrower than

⁄8", or

shorter than 6". Do not sand thin stock by using a

“dummy” board under your workpiece.

CLOTHING. Do not wear loose clothing while

operating this machine. Roll up or button sleeves

at the cuff.

HAND PROTECTION. Do not place hands near,

or in contact with, sanding drums during opera-

tion. Do not allow fingers to get pinched between

board and conveyor belt during operation. This

may pull the operator’s hand into the machine and

cause serious injury!

INSPECTING WORKPIECES. Always inspect

workpiece for nails, staples, knots, and other

imperfections that could be dislodged and thrown

from the machine during sanding operations.

DUST COLLECTION SYSTEM. Never operate

the sander without an adequate dust collection

system in place and running.

UNATTENDED OPERATION. Never leave the

machine running unattended.

REPLACING SANDING PAPER. Replace sand-

ing paper when it becomes worn.

EXPERIENCING DIFFICULTIES. Any problem,

with the exception of conveyor belt tracking that is

concerned with any moving parts or accessories,

must be investigated and corrected with the power

disconnected, and after all moving parts have

come to a complete stop.

MAINTENANCE AND ADJUSTMENTS. Never

attempt to adjust conveyor belt tracking when the

sanding drums are engaged. Perform machine

inspections and maintenance service promptly

when called for. Disconnect power before perform-

ing maintenance or adjustments on the sander.

RESPIRATOR AND SAFETY GLASSES. Always

wear a respirator and safety glasses while operat-

ing the machine. Dust and chips are created when

sanding. Some debris will be ejected, becoming

hazards to the eyes and lungs.

SECTION 2: POWER SUPPLY

Availability

Before installing the machine, consider the avail-

ability and proximity of the required power supply

circuit. If an existing circuit does not meet the

requirements for this machine, a new circuit must

be installed. To minimize the risk of electrocution,

fire, or equipment damage, installation work and

electrical wiring must be done by an electrician or

qualified service personnel in accordance with all

applicable codes and standards.

Electrocution, fire, shock,

or equipment damage

may occur if machine is

not properly grounded

and connected to power

supply.

Full-Load Current Rating

The full-load current rating is the amperage a

machine draws at 100% of the rated output power.

On machines with multiple motors, this is the

amperage drawn by the largest motor or sum of all

motors and electrical devices that might operate

at one time during normal operations.

Full-Load Current Rating at 110V ... 11.5 Amps

The full-load current is not the maximum amount

of amps that the machine will draw. If the machine

is overloaded, it will draw additional amps beyond

the full-load rating.

If the machine is overloaded for a sufficient length

of time, damage, overheating, or fire may result—

especially if connected to an undersized circuit.

To reduce the risk of these hazards, avoid over-

loading the machine during operation and make

sure it is connected to a power supply circuit that

meets the specified circuit requirements.

For your own safety and protection of

property, consult an electrician if you are

unsure about wiring practices or electrical

codes in your area.

Note: Circuit requirements in this manual apply to

a dedicated circuit—where only one machine will

be running on the circuit at a time. If machine will

be connected to a shared circuit where multiple

machines may be running at the same time, con-

sult an electrician or qualified service personnel to

ensure circuit is properly sized for safe operation.

Circuit Requirements

A power supply circuit includes all electrical

equipment between the breaker box or fuse panel

in the building and the machine. The power sup-

ply circuit used for this machine must be sized to

safely handle the full-load current drawn from the

machine for an extended period of time. (If this

machine is connected to a circuit protected by

fuses, use a time delay fuse marked D.)

This machine is prewired to operate on a power

supply circuit that has a verified ground and meets

the following requirements:

Nominal Voltage ...............................110V/120V

Cycle ..........................................................60 Hz

Phase ........................................... Single-Phase

Power Supply Circuit ......................... 20 Amps

-10-

Model G0458 (Mfg. Since 5/11)

Improper connection of the equipment-grounding

wire can result in a risk of electric shock. The

wire with green insulation (with or without yellow

stripes) is the equipment-grounding wire. If repair

or replacement of the power cord or plug is nec-

essary, do not connect the equipment-grounding

wire to a live (current carrying) terminal.

Check with a qualified electrician or service per-

sonnel if you do not understand these grounding

requirements, or if you are in doubt about whether

the tool is properly grounded. If you ever notice

that a cord or plug is damaged or worn, discon-

nect it from power, and immediately replace it with

a new one.

Extension Cords

We do not recommend using an extension cord

with this machine.

If you must use an extension

cord, only use it if absolutely necessary and only

on a temporary basis.

Extension cords cause voltage drop, which can

damage electrical components and shorten motor

life. Voltage drop increases as the extension cord

size gets longer and the gauge size gets smaller

(higher gauge numbers indicate smaller sizes).

Any extension cord used with this machine must

be in good condition and contain a ground wire

and matching plug/receptacle. Additionally, it must

meet the following size requirements:

Minimum Gauge Size ...........................12 AWG

Maximum Length (Shorter is Better).......50 ft.

Grounding & Plug Requirements

Serious injury could occur if you connect

machine to power before completing setup

process. DO NOT connect to power until

instructed later in this manual.

SHOCK HAZARD!

Two-prong outlets do not meet the grounding

requirements for this machine. Do not modify

or use an adapter on the plug provided—if

it will not fit the outlet, have a qualified

electrician install the proper outlet with a

verified ground.

This machine MUST be grounded. In the event

of certain malfunctions or breakdowns, grounding

reduces the risk of electric shock by providing a

path of least resistance for electric current.

This machine is equipped with a power cord that

has an equipment-grounding wire and a grounding

plug. Only insert plug into a matching receptacle

(outlet) that is properly installed and grounded in

accordance with all local codes and ordinances.

DO NOT modify the provided plug!

We recommend assembling the stand upside

down. To make it easier, have an assistant hold

the pieces while you assemble the stand.

Assembly

To assemble the machine:

1. Mount a top and bottom long bracket to

a stand leg and loosely secure with two

M8-1.25 x 15 carriage bolts and serrated

flange nuts as shown in Figure 6.

Do not final tighten stand bolts until the

stand components have been assembled.

4. Build the rest of the stand assembly, as

shown in Figure 9, with the remaining hard-

ware.

5. Turn the stand upright and adjust it so the

legs are evenly positioned, then tighten all

the stand fasteners.

The sander is very heavy.

DO NOT over-exert your-

self while unpacking or

moving your machine—

get assistance.

6. Make sure the sander is still resting on the

shipping pallet.

7. Place the pallet and stand near the perma-

nent mounting location (once the sander is

mounted to the stand it will be difficult to

move).

8. With help of an assistant, tilt the sander back

so the side with pulley cover faces the pallet,

move the left bottom edge of the sander for-

ward, and rest the left side of the sander on

the pallet as shown in Figure 10.

Note: The base should stick out a few inches

beyond the edge of the pallet.

9. Place two stacks of blocks the same height

as the pallet and about 15 inches apart on

the floor near the sander base as shown in

Figure 11.

11. Align the holes, and secure the stand to the

sander with the remaining hex bolts, wash-

ers, and hex nuts (Figure 13).

Note: If the holes do not align, add wood

shims to adjust the block heights.

12. Lift up on the stand and remove the blocks.

13. Tighten the mounting bolts.

10. Lay the stand on the blocks as shown in

Figure 12.

15. Thread the handwheel handle into the

handwheel and tighten it.

16. Slide the handwheel over the shaft, making

sure the shaft pin (Figure 15) inserts into the

slots in the handwheel.

17. Secure the handwheel with an M5-.8 x 10 cap

screw and 5mm flat washer.

If the legs start to slide when tilting, you

MUST have a third person hold the stand

from sliding to avoid personal injury or

machine damage!

Dust Collection

You may attach the Model G0458 drum sander

to a dust collection system if you do not use the

included dust bag. If you are using your own dust

collection system, we recommend using a system

that can collect a minimum of 400 CFM AT THE

DUST PORT.

Note: Do not confuse this CFM recommendation

with the rating of the dust collector. To determine

the CFM at the dust port, you must take into

account many variables, including the rating of

the dust collector, the length of hose between the

dust collector and the machine, the amount of

branches or wyes, and the amount of other open

lines throughout the system.

When the dust collection is working properly, a

fine layer of dust may be present on your stock

as it comes out of the sander. This is a normal

characteristic of all drum sanders.

To connect the dust ports to a dust collector:

1. Attach a 2

⁄2" dust collection hose to the dust

port and secure with a hose clamp.

DO NOT operate the Model G0458 without

adequate dust collection. This sander cre-

ates substantial amounts of wood dust while

operating. Failure to use dust collection can

result in short and long-term respiratory ill-

ness.

18. Slide the dust port over the fan housing and

tighten the included Phillips head screw

(Figure 16).

19. Slide the dust hose clamp over the dust

bag, insert the bag and clamp over the dust

port (Figure 17), and secure with the clamp

handle. DO NOT overtighten the clamping

adjustment or it may break!

Test Run

Now that the machine is assembled, perform a

test run to make sure all the controls are working

properly.

To test run the sander:

1. Put on safety glasses and make sure any

bystanders are out of the way and also wear-

ing safety glasses.

2. Connect the sander to power.

3. Flip the ON/OFF switch ON. Make sure that

your finger is poised over the ON/OFF switch,

just in case there is a problem.

The drum sander should run smoothly, with

little or no vibration or rubbing noises. Strange

or unnatural noises MUST be investigated

and corrected before operating the machine

further. To avoid injury or damage to the

machine, DO NOT attempt to make adjust-

ments to the machine without turning it OFF

and unplugging it from its power source.

Investigate and correct any problems before

operating the machine further. If you need help,

refer to the Troubleshooting section in the back

of this manual or contact Tech Support at (570)

546-9663.

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 adjustments may

need to be repeated to ensure optimum 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 SECTION 7: SERVICE

ADJUSTMENTS.

1. V-Belt Tensioning (Page 27). Perform after

the first 16 hours.

2. Feed Belt Tensioning & Tracking (Pages 31

& 32).

3. Table Adjustments (Page 34).

Before starting the sander, make sure you

have performed the preceding assembly

and adjustment instructions, and you have

read through the rest of the manual and

are familiar with the various functions and

safety issues associated with this machine.

Failure to follow this warning could result in

serious personal injury!
