Skirting board protection roller
for OURAGAN PLO sander
A Skirting board protection roller is an accessory part whose function is to allow the sander to glide smoothly along skirting boards and walls, without the risk of damaging these surfaces when sanding. This wheel, also known as a "skid plate" or "guide wheel", is located at the front of the sander.
The purpose of the skirting guard is to create a gap between the machine and the surface of the wall or skirting board. This prevents any direct friction between the two surfaces, reducing the risk of scratches or damage caused by sanding.
When should I consider changing the skirting guard?
1. Wear and tear: like all wearing parts, the skirting guard can wear down over time, especially if it is often in contact with rough surfaces. If you notice any signs of wear, such as cracks, deformation or a reduction in its sliding efficiency, it's time to replace it.
2. Damage: accidental knocks or impacts can damage the skirting guard, compromising its role in protecting surfaces.
3. Faulty attachment: if the caster is no longer correctly attached to the sander, it may not fulfil its protective function and may scratch or damage skirting boards and walls.
4. Impaired performance: a worn or damaged skirting protection wheel can make the sander difficult to handle, which can affect the quality and efficiency of the sanding.
In conclusion, the skirting protector wheel is an important part of the sanding machine for protecting skirting boards and walls. If you notice any signs of wear, damage or impaired performance, we recommend that you replace the wheel. Always use a skirting protection wheel in good condition to ensure a quality sanding job and to preserve the integrity of the surfaces treated.
