There are several reasons why your Chicago Electric Sander might not start. First, ensure the cord is properly plugged in. Second, check if the outlet has power; if not, check the circuit breaker, making sure the circuit's capacity is adequate and not overloaded. Finally, internal damage or wear could be the cause, in which case you should have a technician service the tool.
What to do if my Chicago Electric Sander is overheating?
If your Chicago Electric Sander is overheating, there could be a few reasons. Avoid forcing the tool to work too fast, allow it to work at its own pace. Check for blocked motor housing vents and, while wearing ANSI-approved safety goggles and a NIOSH-approved dust mask/respirator, blow out any dust using compressed air. Also, a long or small diameter extension cord might be straining the motor. Eliminate the use of an extension cord or use one with the proper diameter for its length and load.
Why is my Chicago Electric Sander operating slowly?
If your Chicago Electric Sander is operating slowly, it might be due to applying excess pressure to the workpiece; decrease the pressure and allow the tool to do the work. Alternatively, a long or small diameter extension cord could be reducing power. Try eliminating the extension cord or using one with the proper diameter for its length and load.
