We’ve addressed issues common with other drum sanders by adding five features that are exclusive to our 19-38 machines.No other drum sander on the market has these features!
Simple alignment featureJust one nut will adjust the conveyor to parallel the sanding head, making aligning the conveyor to the sanding head fast and easy
Indexed alignment settingHas an indexed alignment setting for narrow and wide stock. When sanding stock wider than 19″, the index lever will properly adjust the conveyor for flawless wide sanding
Easy height adjustmentsA thrust bearing below the handle and a nut positioned above prevents the drum from moving out of the set position while sanding. No backlash or slop in the height adjustment mechanism allowing easier and smoother height adjustments
Extra-wide conveyorto properly support stock over 19″ wide. The conveyor table is 22″ wide to add support to the work piece
Drum will never go “out of alignment”The drum carriage is bolted to the base, preventing any movement or alignment issues
Additional Features
INTELLISAND™ Technology:Automatically adjusts conveyor speed based on load
Prevents gouging, damaging or burning stock
Provides consistent finish even with varying grain pattern and density
Greatly increases abrasive planing and dimensioning speed
Flatness Guarantee:Precision-flattened steel conveyor bed reinforced with four steel cross sections for no “flex” in conveyor, guaranteeing flatness to less than .010″ across the width of the sander
Abrasive conveyor beltoffers the best grip for raw wood, giving you the ability to accommodate stock that is much shorter or thinner
Patented Abrasive Attachment Systemeffectively tensions the abrasive wraps, preventing loose abrasive and overlap
Easiest accessto abrasive fastening system of any drum sander! Extra wide space to access fasteners to eliminate need for special tools
Self-coolingdrum prevents overheating and extends abrasive life
Tension rollers are adjustablein height and hold down pressure, eliminating snipe
Excellent dust extractionas dust cover is formed to shape of drum Metal, not plastic, is formed to maximize air flow and dust extraction
Heavy-duty cast ironconstruction for strength, rigidity and reduced vibration

Maintenance Tips
Clean the drum and conveyor: Remove dust after each use to maintain performance.
Check sandpaper tension: Replace or rewrap worn abrasives for smooth sanding.
Lubricate moving parts: Keep conveyor bearings and tensioners lightly oiled.
Inspect alignment: Ensure the drum is parallel to the table for consistent sanding.
Keep dust ports clear: Maintain airflow for efficient dust removal and motor protection.
