Where can I obtain a sanding pad for a Robyi HRS 115K Orbital Sander
The 4 1/2" 8 vac hole Hook & Loop back-up pads for the Ryobi Sander are no longer available, But you can apply a new hook surface to your present pad $3.75 each conversion disc at Supergrit abrasives , Gettysburg, PA 800 822-4003
SOURCE: orbital sander doesnt orbit!
Never start the Sander without first placing it against the surface to be sanded. In free air the Sander will not osolate.
SOURCE: Porter Cable Random Orbital Sander rotates but does not "orbit"
Just solved my problem with Porter Cable 333 orbital sander which just groaned. I thought the worst. I carefully took it apart on the garage floor and immediately suspected it needed lubrication as the motor turned hard. I used my flexible long plastic tube lubrication and put some on the bottom bearing shaft the best I could. I worked it around and around. I began to feel it turning easier. I applied more oil and kept moving and it became completely free. I put a drop on the top bearing even though it was loose. I put it all back together and it works like new. Lesson: do not look for the worst when a tool quits. Suspect the culprit to be lack of lubrication!!!
