  If the wood is burning during sanding with your Craftex Sander, several factors could be at play. The abrasive strip edges may be overlapped, in this case you should reattach abrasive strip properly. Alternatively, the abrasive might be loaded with resin, requiring you to replace it. An excessive depth of cut could also be the culprit, so try a coarser grit and limit the depth of cut. Lastly, a feed rate that's too slow can cause burning, so increase the feed rate.

  If you notice evenly spaced ripples on the stock when using your Craftex Sander, it could be due to a few reasons. The sanding bed might be flexing, in this case reduce the depth of cut. Sander vibration caused by loose parts can also cause this issue, so reduce the feed rate. Another potential cause is a dirty or out-of-balance drum, so check for loose bolts and shaft coupling set screws.
