Skirting board protection roller axle

for OURAGAN PLO sander

The Skirting board protection roller axle is an essential mechanical part that enables the skirting wheel to be fixed and rotated. The skirting wheel is an accessory part that allows the sander to glide along skirting boards and walls without the risk of damaging them when sanding.

The skirting guard spindle therefore plays a crucial role in the smooth operation of the skirting guard, allowing it to pivot and adapt to surfaces while maintaining an appropriate distance between the sanding plate and the skirting boards.

When should I consider changing the skirting guard spindle?

1. Wear: like any moving mechanical part, the spindle can wear out over time, especially if it is subjected to repeated rubbing when using the sander. If you notice any signs of wear, such as deformation, corrosion or irregular movement of the skirting guard, it's time to change the spindle.

2. Damage: shocks or impacts can damage the skirting guard caster axle, compromising its operation and the rotation of the caster.

3. Incorrect rotation of the caster: if the skirting guard caster does not rotate correctly or if it remains stuck in one position, this may indicate a problem with the axle. In this case, it should be replaced to ensure that the caster operates correctly and protects the surfaces.

4. Faulty attachment: if the spindle is no longer correctly attached to the sander, it can cause the skirting protection wheel to become misaligned, which can lead to damage to skirtings and walls during sanding.

In short, the skirting protection wheel axle on a sander is essential to ensure that the wheel works properly and to protect skirting boards and walls during sanding. If you notice any signs of wear, damage or problems with the rotation of the roller, it is advisable to replace the spindle to ensure a quality sanding job and to avoid damaging the surfaces being treated. If you have any doubts about the condition of the skirting guard spindle on your sander, contact Repex Floor after-sales service to assess the situation and replace it if necessary.
