Successive windings of strip must not have any
overlap. They should be flush with previous
windings or with a slight gap between.

Press inboard take-up lever (Figure 6-9) and insert
trailing end of strip as far as it will go. If necessary,
trim tapered end of abrasive strip.
5.
Release inboard take-up lever to secure strip.
All abrasive strips will stretch over time as they are
used, and may stretch enough to allow the take-up
lever to reach its lowest position so that it cannot
maintain tension on the strip. If this occurs, follow the
above procedures to reset the take-up lever.

7.0 Electrical connections
All electrical connections must be
done by a qualified electrician in compliance with all
local codes and ordinances. Failure to comply may
result in serious injury.
The JWDS-1632-M Sander is rated at 230V power. The
sander comes with a plug designed for use on a circuit
with a grounded outlet
Before connecting to power source, be sure switch is
in off position.
It is recommended that the sander be connected to a
dedicated 16 amp circuit with circuit breaker or fuse.
If connected to a circuit protected by fuses, use time
delay fuse marked "T". Local codes take precedence
over recommendations.
8.0 Adjustments
source before making adjustments.
8.1 Drum Height Control
Drum height and depth of cut are controlled by height
adjustment handle (see Figure 5-1). Rotating handle
clockwise lowers drum, counterclockwise raises it. One
revolution of handle will move drum approximately
1.6mm (or 1/4 turn = approx. 0.4mm), as shown on the
label below handle.
8.2 Depth scale
The depth scale indicates distance between bottom of
sanding drum and top of conveyor belt. Adjustment is
performed by "zeroing" the scale.
1.
Unplug sander from power source.
2.
With an abrasive strip on drum, lower drum to
where it touches top of conveyor belt.
3.
At this drum position, the depth scale pointer
should align with zero mark on scale. If it does not,
loosen two screws (Figure 8-1) and raise or lower
scale until zero aligns with the pointer.
4.
Retighten screws.
Note: Depending on desired accuracy, you may need
to repeat this process when installing different
abrasive grits.

8.3 Conveyor belt tension/tracking
Conveyor belt tension adjustment may be necessary
during the break-in period to compensate for belt
stretching.
