Q: What is the orbit or offset size and what finish is it best suited for?
A: The HU-3500 standard finishing version uses a 3/32-inch offset orbit, which produces a fine scratch pattern ideal for final surfaces and paint preparation. For more aggressive material removal, versions with larger offsets are available.
Q: What air pressure and flow are required to operate this sander effectively?
A: It requires about 90 psi and consumes about 11.0 cfm of air to deliver full performance. Insufficient airflow or pressure will reduce speed and increase vibration.
Q: How is pad changing handled and what pad type works?
A: It uses a pressure-lock pad release system so the user can change the 6-inch PSA (adhesive) style disc quickly without tools. Ensure pads are PSA-compatible for best adhesion and balance.
