Thanks for that [member=64030]TinyShop[/member] !
I have several HBSE75 sanders but have never needed to go deeper inside than to replace brushes. This video could be very useful sometime.
Early in 2003 I committed to switching to Festool (from Bosch mostly) during a visit from the regional sales rep when he told me Festool had bought the Holz-her factory. I’d been using the AEG version of that great belt sander with frame for twenty years and was getting worried about it’s longevity since there was nothing comparable to replace it. I was very relieved to think that Festool would bring it back to the North American market. Later, after learning that that would never happen I began buying them at eBay. Was very lucky to find one that was brand-new-still-in-the-box. In the fifteen years I’ve been on the lookout for the sanders I’ve only managed to buy one more frame and it’s really the frame that makes all the difference.
