I purchased this sander for $18 at a local thrift shop. The dust bag was availabe for purchase but I neglected to buy it because in my experience they never work well. I believe the year of manufacture is 1983.
This is so useful! I have the same model #. I took mine apart a few years ago but when reassembled, it would not work. So I needed to see a breakdown of assembly and make sure my assembly matched it. Your video is first rate. Close ups, great visuals, no talking and no music. So perfect. Please keep making these. You are saving power tools around the world and making everyone very happy. Thank you! Greetings from California.♥♥♥
Thank you! This was invaluable -- the only instructable I've found for my 30-year-old trusty sander. Dismantled, cleaned, replaced the cord and pad -- works like new. You should do more of these 😍🥳
The camera cut off the can label but you can use acetone, mineral spirits, alcohol. Looks like alcohol to me. Steel wool 0000 grade is great for polishing up metal parts.
No need for the negativity. This helped me know how to take apart my own sander and clean the brushes - which were causing intermittent problems. Thank you and much kudos to the creator of this video all the way from the UK! 😀
