Troubleshooting
Sanding pad not adhering to the machine
Ensure the machine's backing plate and the pad's pile surface are clean and free of debris. Press firmly to ensure a secure connection.
Sandpaper not sticking to the pad
Check that the sandpaper has a hook and loop backing. Ensure both the sandpaper and the pad's fastener surface are clean and free from dust or fibers.
Excessive vibration still present
Verify that the pad is correctly seated on the machine's backing plate. Ensure the sandpaper is also securely attached. The machine itself may require maintenance.
Dust extraction is poor
Confirm that the 6 holes on the pad align with the dust extraction ports on your machine. Ensure the vacuum system is functioning correctly and filters are clean.
