SANDER RPM IS LOW , EVEN AFTER MAX AIR SUPPLY

I just looked on ebay you can buy the orbital sanders for as low as $10.00 Even the Black and Decker is around $ 15.00 Cheaper to replace than to keep. Good Luck https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ff8iYu7JXvA

Should be a dial on side of sander, turn clockwise or counter to change rpm.
good luck

It simply unscrews. The pad is held on by a small bolt length attached to the pad. Unscrew it.

check the exhaust muffler. or just take it off and see what happens.

there is usually an inlet air adjustment on the palm sander itself one of these will correct your sander.
if not, and your air supply is good. put some air oil in it or even a light weight oil will work.
if none of this is the correct action to get it going. its probably toast!

Try to increase the psi to 125,if possible.also clean the air tool out with wd 40 and or auto trans.fluid.Try this and put it in the end of gun where the air goes in at.

A random orbit air sander with a fairly course grit paper would probably do the job well. At least 60 grit or even down to 40 grit should remove almost anything.

It would take 6" pully w/ a 2.25" which would not fit on that machine, no room for the 6". Replace with the same RPM motor is the proper way, unless you simply want a slower speed sander, duh! You cannot change the motor rpm without a defenant power issue, if you change the rpm your sander will power out, sorry?

You must replace the speed control module. Any Makita service certer can supply you with the proper parts.

# Ensure that sanding belts are not too tight or too loose. Never operate a sanding disk if the paper is loose. # Use the correct grade of abrasive material for the job. # Ensure that the distance between a circular sander and the edge of the table is not greater than 1/4 inch. # Do not push materials against sanders with excessive force. # Sand only on the downstroke side of a disk sander. # Do not hold small pieces by hand. Use a jig for pieces that are difficult to hold securely
