preparing for stick-down

g'day,
I'm about to lay a stick down floor. 85mm x13mm hardwood on top of particle board flooring
(new house). I understand I need to sand the particle board, I assume because the edges are raised (very slightly) from weather exposure, and just to remove the accumulated building process gunk, to get better adhesion.
Probably a dumb question but is the sander I need to hire a drum sander?
Also if anyone has any tips??
thanks in advance.
