Selector switch

Selector switch​ for Mistral light sander

The switch in the motor section of a sander plays a crucial role in controlling the power supply. It is used to start and stop the sander motor, allowing the operator to control the operation of the machine. The switch is therefore a key element in ensuring the safety and ease of use of the sander.

When it's time to change the switch depends on a number of factors, including general wear and tear on the part, electrical faults, signs of overheating or contact problems. Here are some common signs that the switch may need replacing:

1. Starting or stopping problems: If the switch does not respond correctly, causing difficulty in starting or stopping the sander, it may be faulty.

2. Overheating: A faulty switch may cause overheating, which may be noticeable by touch or by automatic shutdowns to protect the unit.

3. Electrical malfunctions: Intermittent power cuts, sparking or other signs of electrical malfunction may indicate problems with the switch.

It is important to note that the replacement of parts, including the switch, should be carried out in accordance with the Repex Floor manufacturer's recommendations. Whilst Repex Floor spare parts are specifically designed for your Mistral sander, following the manufacturer's instructions and using genuine replacement parts can help to ensure the correct operation and safety of your equipment.

If you experience any problems with the switch on your sander, it is recommended that you contact our after-sales service or a qualified professional for advice specific to your situation.
