The dust scoop helps control the effectiveness
of the dust collection system, thus reducing
the amount of dust that accumulates on the
workpiece as it travels through the sander.
To adjust the dust scoop position
:
1. Disconnect power to the sander!
2. Open the top cover.
3. Loosen the four button head cap screws,
shown in
Figure 41, that secure the dust
scoop to the rear upper angle.
4. At both ends, adjust the dust scoop forward/
backward until there is a 4mm gap between
the rear drum and the dust scoop at the nar
-
rowest point (use the 4mm hex wrench as a
gauge; Figure 41), and tighten the four but-
ton head cap screws.

In order for the scale pointer to be accurate, it
must be calibrated.
We recommend calibrating your scale pointer
any time you adjust the drum heights or table lift
screws.
To calibrate the scale pointer
:
1. Sand a workpiece with the drum sander
and measure the thickness of the sanded
workpiece.
2. Loosen the screw that secures the scale
pointer and adjust it to the thickness of the
workpiece.
