ROS question

[sachbvn]

Alright - I got myself the new low profile PC ROS. It's nice, pretty quiet, I think lighter than my old Craftsman Prof.

If it isn't any lighter - it sure feels like it because it is much more ergonomic to hold....

Anyways....while sanding I noticed some times the sanding pad doesn't rotate.... is this correct? I have the VS turned all the way up.... I can't tell if pressure on the sander makes the rotating pad stop, or if it is completely random. (no pun intended)


Your thoughts?

LOTS of ROSs seem to do that from time to time - pad rotates for a while, stops rotating, sometimes rotates slowly backwards. Although it seems to happen when the sander's tilted certain ways with a certain kinda' pressure, it's not definitely repeatable.
