The graphite platen was worn out and had a hole worn completely through it.

Removed the sanding belt and tool rest.
Use an electric heat gun to soften the glue so that you can pull the old platen off.
Use plenty of solvent and rags to remove all of the left over glue and plastic film from the sander platen base. This was the hardest and most time consuming part.
Do NOT peel all of the plastic backer off of the new platen but just enough to get it started. Then line the platen up with the sander and using the heat gun slowly heat the glue side as you peel the plastic backing off and push the platen into place.
Just make sure that the glue is soft/sticky enough to adhere to the sander.

1. Remove the old/worn graphite pad with a razor blade scraper and acetone.
2. Remove Start and Run capacitors: Unplug sander. Remover disc tool rest. Raise the sander on the disc end and secure from tipping, remove the bottom cover, the caps are visible and easy to replace.
3. Install the capacitors in their original brackets and connect. One cap\'s wires needed to be cut. Crimp-on wire connectors worked-wire nuts could be used though.
4. Install the new graphite pad, very easy to align.
5. Reassemble, install tool rest, plug-in, install sanding belt over graphite pad, start the sander and adjust tracking.

Once I found the correct chemical solvent to dissolve the mastic on the back of the old graphite pad, and got it removed, it was easy to peal off the cover of the new mastic back and stick on the new pad.
Please tell us what is the correct solvent to use.
It took me five tries before I found one that worked.
