User questions & answers

Question:	What is the purpose of the batteries? It is electric but the description says it requires a battery
Answer:	Batteries Included? No Batteries Required? No

Answer:	Yes it uses Velcro.They carry sand paper for these at most home improvement stores.

Answer:	According to the description this sander uses sanding discs which attach with hook and loop, which I think is the same thing as Velcro.

User questions & answers

Question:	Where could I get replacment filters
Answer:	Thank you for your question. The filters are not available separately it would be a replacement dust canister part #2609199179. http://www.amazon.com/Bosch-Sander-Replacement-Container-2609199179/dp/B002ENHE14/ref=sr_1_2?s=hi&ie=UTF8&qid=1428435615&sr=1-2&keywords=Bosch+2609199179 If you have further questions please feel free to contact our Bosch Customer Service Representatives at 1-877-BOSCH-99 (1-877-267-2499)
Question:	Can this sander be hooked up to a vaccum using standard attachments
Answer:	Yes it can, I hook mine upto a Rigid Shop Vac. However, because of the size of a shop vac type hose I would suggest going into a smaller hose that you would attach to the larger shop vac hose. For your Information, this sander does have a connector to connect to a dust extraction hose instead of the included dust system. This sander does make a lot of dust so going into an external extraction system is a big help.
Question:	My new ros20vsc, set at 6, slows noticeably if i just set it on a suface to sand. is this normal
Answer:	Thank you for your question. The ROS20VSC Orbit sander normally has a slow start, however, if it is for the whole time you are using the tool with the speed of 6, we might need to evaluate it. Kindly contact us at 1-877-BOSCH99 (1-877-267-2499) from Mon-Fri 7A-7P CST.
Question:	What is the difference between this and the ROS20VSK version? Just the carrying bag? Does the 'K' version have anything this one does not
Answer:	Thank you for your question. The ROS20VS is the same sander in both kits. The difference is the ROS20VCS will have a soft canvas carrying bag and the ROS20VSCK will include a hard carrying case. If you have further questions please feel free to contact our Bosch Customer Service Representatives at 1-877-BOSCH-99 (1-877-267-2499)

This attachment has over 35,000 long-life hooks that will ensure firm grip of the disc during use. Additionally, the microcellular backing pad is pliable to ensure a smooth, fine finish on both flat and contoured surfaces alike.

Right Speed for the Task

This palm sander is loaded with features to reduce vibration and noise and increase ergonomics and operator comfort. These features include a comfortable rubber grip and a recessed lever platform that eliminates pinching and pressure points on the operator’s palm. An innovative internal muffler helps reduce noise and won’t break off during use. A Stikit disc pad is included with this 6 inch random orbital sander, allowing the operator to quickly and easily apply adhesive-backed discs to the sanding tool. 3M pneumatic orbital sanders are designed to optimize the performance of 3M abrasives, with speed control and a low-profile, balanced design. 3/16” diameter orbit provides a moderate cut-rate and a fine finish on metal, composites, wood and more. Operates at 90 psi with an air flow rate of 17 SCFM.

From the Manufacturer

The 3M™ Random Orbital Sander 20325 non-vacuum tool is air-powered and delivers professional performance and a swirl-free finish hour after hour in high-production industrial environments where dust extraction is not required. Designed to optimize the performance of 3M™ Abrasives, this high-quality 3M tool features a 6" diameter for broader coverage, and a 3/16" orbit ideal for general purpose operations.

Use them with a wide selection of 3M abrasives and accessories. A 3M™ Stikit™ Disc Pad is included.

Disc Pad Included for Optimal Performance

3M sanders perform best when paired with 3M disc pads and abrasives. The disc pad included with the tool reduces vibrations for smoother running, provides reliable disc adhesion, and enables optimal performance of the tool. The box includes one 6" 3M Stikit Low Profile Disc Pad 20354 recommended for flat sanding operations, for use with 6" Stikit discs (sold separately). This versatile sander also works with 3M™ Hookit™ disc pads, enabling operators to use Scotch-Brite™ discs in addition to coated abrasive discs.

Using Your Pneumatic Sander

This tool is intended to be operated as a handheld tool and is air-powered. It requires an air compressor that will provide a clean lubricated air supply with an airflow rate of 17 standard cubic feet per minute (SCFM), or 481 liters per minute (LPM), and 90 pounds per square inch (psi) at the tool, i.e. the point where the air hose is connected to the tool, when the tool is running with the level fully depressed. Recommended is an approved 3/8 inch (10 mm) airline at the minimum length required for the application, with a maximum length of 25 feet (8 m). For more details about connecting the tool to your air supply, see the Instruction Manual. Max RPM is 12,000 at 90 psi.

Why Choose a Random Orbital Sander?

3M random orbital sanders optimize sanding and surface preparation on wood, metal, fiberglass and composite materials, and many other substrates.

User questions & answers

Question:	Is this an orbital sander? The instruction manual seems to say it is
Answer:	Hello, No this model is not an orbital sander. Thank you for your inquiry!
Question:	where can you get extra micro filters for this unit
Answer:	I purchased a couple over a year ago on Amazon. Don't have the part number handy though. Sorry.
Question:	Is the picture on this page correct? When on the search page, it was a square sander, but on this page, it's a circle sander
Answer:	It is square, I had trouble with this sander and had to return. The metal clip that holds the sandpaper broke off. I recommend getting the DEWALT D26441 2.4 Amp 1/4 Sheet Palm Grip Sander with Cloth Dust Bag, it's a lot better and cheaper.
Question:	Does it have a circular or linear motion
Answer:	circular of sorts, but don't waste your money on this thing. I had the same problem as many other others, and that was one of the hold down handles for the paper broke. It is a piece of junk. I bought a porter cable for 10 dollars more, and it is a fantastic sander. One of the best I have ever owned.
