Delta drum sander drive roller
I just bought a used Delta 31-255x. Works pretty good. Looks like it's been
used steady but treated well. The only thing that bothers me is the infeed drive roller. When the bed is raised so the drum will take off about a 64th, the wood will bump into the drive roller and stay there until you give it a good healthy push downward so it gets under the roller. Then it moves along just fine. As it comes out the other side there's a solid THUNK as it comes out from under the front drive roller and it returns to its stop. Otherwise, the unit works fine. The piece comes out pretty even, same thickness both sides so it looks like the drum is adjusted right, the feed belt is tracking right. This is my first drum sander. I haven't used one at all before. Can someone tell me if that infeed drive roller is behaving the way it should? Dan |
