If the spindle on your RIDGID Sander doesn’t go through its full 3/4 inch travel, sawdust may be compacted under the lower drum washer. Vacuum the sawdust from the area of the lower drum washer. If the gearbox is damaged, consult an Authorized Service Center, as any attempt to repair it may create a hazard unless done by a qualified service technician.
