Post subject:  Delta Drum Sander Board Motor

I had a jam-up with a Delta drum sander, the motorized board will now not turn on, but the drum sander will. I thought I could turn on the motor without the sander? Its the last from newest generation BTW. It does not seem to want to work. I would like to bypass the 'control box' with a router motor controller (used for heat blanket) and extension chord when I can find a 2 prong one as a first resort. What size chord would I need for this? Its just the little motor that controls the board. Anyone ever have this? Is there a fuse anywhere?

I know nothing about this unit but look for a reset button somewhere around the switch box or on the motor.

Just one possibility.

Ok, it looks like that was it, there is a little white dot-button, and it pushes in with a keywrench, its really small. Some people have replaced motors and the whole electronic she-bang on these on other message boards. Its a really innocuous 'button'. You barely notice it. Otherwise I would have bypassed using a router-speed controller I use for the heat blanket. Should have done the same thing, but you need a 2 prong chord that is big enough- if anyone searches this problem. Thanks

The magnets came loose from the inside of the motor housing on my Delta feed motor. They were loose and "banging around". Epoxied them back in place and works fine.

I had a jam-up, the board went in sideways and got stuck.
