2.0 out of 5 stars difficult to adjust, August 15, 2003

This is an extremely important addition to the Performax 16-32 drum sander that doesn't compare to an otherwise well designed machine. The installation is relatively easy, two bolts on either side to mount the side brackets. The trick is to get the tables flat corresponding to the conveyor belt. After raising and lowering the tables and brackets several times I managed to get them close, but not where I wanted them, which is dead on. As a previous reviewer stated, they have a tendency to trail off (down) at the ends away from the machine, which makes them almost useless. Take it from a guy who has owned both the Performax and the Delta: you are still better off with the Performax. This item should be at least close right out of the box, and perfect with a few adjustments, but I'll have to settle for close.

It took me the better part of two evenings to get these tables installed and adjusted properly. Even after I got them the way I wanted them, during use they didn't provide the positive support I was hoping for.I mostly just use them to keep the workpiece from falling to the floor.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Great Addition to the Performax 16-32, December 10, 2001

This is a great addition to the Performax 16-32 drum sander. the infeed outfeed tables allow for the use of longer boards, and a 'storage/holding' area for smaller items. More importantly, with the longer boards, it offers support to the sander, taking the possible stress and weight away from the drum sander itself when the board is not 'balanced' on the feed table.

The installation was quick and easy, about 5 minutes total. The infeed outfeed tables attached to pre-existing holes on the Performax stand. Adjustment is just moving the tables up or down to align with the sander's feeder table, then tighten the bolts. That's it.

Before I had the tables, for pieces longer than 24 inches, I had to hold and 'level' the board as it feed into the sander to avoid the weight of the board gouging up or down on the sander, especially on the ends of the board. With the infeed outfeed tables, this problem has almost been eliminated, except of the boards that are 8 feet long.

Overall, a great investment, that makes the 16-32 drum sander even more productive.
