To replace a band on the Drum Sander, loosen the screw without removing it to contract the drum then slide
the old band off. Slide the new sanding band on and then expand the drum by tightening the screw once again.
Before each use, check to make certain that all components are assembled to accessory
shank and that the drum is sufficiently expanded to secure the band during use. If sanding
band is loose on the drum during operation it may “fly” off and strike you or bystanders.
WARNING
!
Mandrel No. 401 is used with the felt polishing tip and wheels. Thread the tip on to the screw carefully. The felt
tip must thread down straight on the screw Mandrel, and be turned all the way to the collar.
Mandrel No. 402 has a small screw at its tip, and is used with emery cutting wheels and sanding discs. Higher
speeds, usually maximum, are best for most work, including cutting steel. Which is shown here.
The machine-screw threading on Mandrel No. 424 threads into polishing point No. 427. This and other
threaded mandrels must be screwed firmly down to the collar before being used.
