Suction skirt
Suction skirt for 4D multi-disc single disc sander
The suction skirt under the 4D single disc sander is an essential part that plays an important role in the sander's suction system. It creates a vacuum under the sander for optimum suction. It is located underneath the sander and is designed to collect dust, debris and particles generated during the sanding process.
The vacuum skirt serves several purposes:
1. Dust collection: when the sander is running, the suction skirt rests against the work surface and creates a seal that effectively sucks up the dust and residue generated by the sanding process.
2. Maintains a clean environment: by sucking up dust directly at source, the dust skirt helps to maintain a cleaner working environment, reducing the amount of airborne dust and preventing it from spreading around the room.
3. Improved health and safety: reducing the amount of dust in the air can help prevent respiratory problems and allergies in the sander operator and others in the work area.
4. Improved sanding performance: by keeping the work surface clear of dust and debris, the extraction skirt allows better visibility and better contact between the sander and the surface, which improves sanding performance.
When to change the dust skirt depends on how worn it is and how well it collects dust.
Here are a few signs that it may be time to change the part:
1. Visible wear: if you notice that the suction skirt is torn, worn, deformed or damaged, this may compromise its dust-collecting efficiency.
2. Leaking dust: if you notice that the skirt is not creating a watertight seal with the work surface and is leaking dust, this means that it is not working properly and needs to be replaced.
3. Reduced suction efficiency: if you notice that the sander is no longer sucking up dust properly or that there is more dust on the work surface than before, this may be due to wear on the suction skirt.
We recommend that you check the condition of the suction skirt regularly and replace it as soon as any signs of wear or failure appear. A suction skirt in good condition helps to maintain a clean and safe working environment while improving the sanding performance of the 4D single disc sander.
