  If the sanding drums on your Shop Fox Sander won't start, the thermal protection circuit breaker may be tripped. To resolve this, unplug the sander, open the main power panel, and push the reset button. Also, the main power emergency stop button may be pushed in, or it could be faulty. Try twisting and pulling the main power emergency stop button, or test and replace the switch if necessary. Another potential cause is that the power supply is insufficient or the circuit breaker or fuse is tripped, so repair the power supply.

Why Shop Fox Sander drums won't start?
- D
  Daniel LaneSep 12, 2025
  If the sanding drums on your Shop Fox Sander won't start, it could be due to a loose or broken wire or plug. To fix this, replace all faulty wiring and plugs. Another possible cause is that the amperage dial is set too low. To address this, unplug the sander, open the main power panel, and adjust the amperage dial on the main power magnetic switch to 25 amps. Finally, a faulty drum-drive motor or main power magnetic switch could be the problem. In this case, replace or repair the drum-drive motor or replace the main power magnetic switch.
