FAQs

What is the difference between a random orbit sander and an orbital sander?

A random orbit sander uses a circular sanding pattern and an elliptical motion, while an orbital sander uses only an elliptical motion. A random orbit sander produces a finer finish and is better for sanding curved surfaces, while an orbital sander is better for sanding flat surfaces.

Can I use my Makita orbital sander for wet sanding?

No, Makita orbital sanders are not designed for wet sanding. Using them for wet sanding could damage the tool and create a safety hazard. Wet sanding requires specialized equipment and techniques, such as using waterproof sandpaper and a water source to keep the surface wet. If you need to wet sand a surface, it is recommended to use a tool specifically designed for this purpose.

How do I change the sanding pad on my Makita orbital sander?

To change the sanding pad on your Makita orbital sander, first, unplug the tool. Then, press the release button or lever to remove the old pad. Align the new pad with the mounting holes and press it firmly into place until it clicks.
