RO 90 - Edge protector size versus Window protector set

[mwildt]

Curious what size the edge protector, that comes with the RO 90, is compared to the window set 497936. Will it correspond to any of those in the set ? How close will the pad get to the edge when using these ?

Thanks
Michael

The 3 piece set's sizes are all different from the standard one that comes with the RO 90. The standard has a zero offset so that you can sand right up to the edge, and the 3 piece set have sizes something like 5 mm, 10 mm and 15 mm, not exactly sure about those dimensions, but something along those lines.

Ok, cool. Very good to know.

I wish they made them for the RO125, or did I miss them?

That I know of, there isn't a window set for the RO-125 at least in NA.  The edge of the RO-125 edge guide is fairly wide; seems like you could double-stick tape something to the edge to give the offset you want.  If it's needed enough, retrofit a few using cyanoacrylate.

There are not protector sets for the other sanders, only the RO 90, since its designed more for use on trim.

Here's a video showing the different sizes.
