Question: Fan Counterbalance

reneuprr

does not look like my broken part. the bottom of new part has a neck and the old one goes not

Reply: Fan Counterbalance

WJA

Hello reneuprr,

I can't tell you for sure, but the manufacture may have made a design change in this part. But if your model number is R2611. The 640908001 fan counterbalance will work in your tool.

Question: R2611 Output

1097690

My r2611 pad is not engaging when trigger is pulled. The motor is running but sanding pad not spinning. Is the output shaft and pin assembly the problem? Thanks, Dave

Reply: R2611 Output

WJA

Hello 1097690,

There is definitely something broken inside your sander, and it could be a number of items. The best thing for you to do is breakdown your sander and see what is broken. Then let us know and we will get the broken part right out to you.

Hope that helps,

-WJA

Question: OUTPUT SLEEVE

1040597

RECIVED A NEW OUTPUT SLEEVE AND BEARING PUT TOGETHER AND THE PAD JUST SPINS LIKE IT'S NOT HOOKED TO THE MOTOR THE BEARING JUST SPINS ANY ANSWERS

Question: Broken Pad

Keith

the pad came loose due to the vibration I guess, the screws that hold the pad caused the pads mounting holes to widen theby causing the pad to come off. I replaced the pad with a new one and it worked for one month and then the same thing happened, I will not buy anymore ridgid tools, they are junk

Reply: Broken Pad

WJA

Hi Kieth,

I have seen this happen with a number of other random orbit sander manufactures. You are right, the problem is caused by the tool vibration. The best thing to do is to get in the habit of making sure the screws holding the pad on are tight before you use the sander.

Question: Polishing

pierre valiquette

Does anybody know if you can use the orbital sander for polishing furniture?

Reply: Polishing

Keith

not a good idea, but it could be done. it does a good job at sanding though, except when it breaks. I won't buy any more ridgid tools

Question: R2611

Gerard

My sander spins when I squeeze the trigger; but as soon as I place it on the wood to start sanding the spinning slows down. Any suggestions as to what part I need to replace and how do I change it? Thanks in advance.
Gerard

Question: Backing Pad

Mel

I go through backing pad assemblies quickly. The holes thru which the screws fit wallow out. I tighten the screws firmly, but the thing wobbles apart in no time. Any thoughts?

Reply: Backing Pad

tommy

Put some loctite on the screws

Reply: Backing Pad

Keith

I had the same problem. Basically what you need to do is buy a different tool from somebody else

Question: Falling Off Sand Paper

john

I bought my sander about a year ago, but have only used it a couple of times. the sand paper will not stay on the sander and just falls off or flies off. Is it old paper or the part the paper sticks to.
can you help?

Reply: Falling Off Sand Paper

Jon

Make sure you're using the hook and loop paper. If you are then it could be that you need a new pad. Pads usually are worn when you press down on the sander while sanding instead of letting the tool do the work.

Review: Ridgid - R2611

Jim Snedeker

I purchased this Ridgid Random Orbital Sander, Model Number R-2611, June 25, 2008. It is already worn out. The warranty service in Houston is lousy so I had to repair it myself the first time, and now I need another part.Also, i bought a Ridgid Cordless Drill, Model Number R86006. Same deal, bought it February 1, 2008. Already been in shop for two months and no Switch is available for it and no ETA when it will come in. I see NO MORE Ridgid in my Future..

Review: Ridgid - R2611

Jim Snedeker

Had this Sander 6 months and have had several problems with it. Now the Fan Counter Balance is broken and I am repairing it myself. The local people take too long. I have a Cordless Drill, Ridgid, in for repair for one month now and it's still not ready. Also there is no repair manual available on line to show how to replace parts on this Sander. The Sander is a R2611 Random Orbital Sander. Thanks, no more Ridgid for me! Jim
