Bought this tool about a year ago fell out of the tool box and broke what they call the guard 3M blew up Photo of all the parts of the tool, but you cannot get parts for it. I was told by 3M they told me it was a disposable tool. $200 isn't a disposable tool for me WILL BREAK
Pros
Pivoting body allows for use in a variety of confined spaces
I've only had this for two weeks but it gets into the trickiest spots and makes sanding metal easier. I noticed that it has a cover at the base where you install the new strap. I was wondering if I need a torx or something to unscrew it first to gain access to tighten the new belt. It's not like this. It features a handle that can be easily rotated by hand to open or close the protective cover. You will not be disappointed with this tool.
The tool itself is fine. The front wheel was supposed to have rubber, and it didn't have rubber on the wheel. Just a steel roller. This killed the straps in three welds. $$$. I called 3m and they did nothing for me at all. I was told to send it back to Amazon. I wasn't even referred to the warranty department. I was surprised by their lack of customer service. 3m is usually top quality. But they didn't endorse their product at all. I had to buy a spare tire for another $20.
Pros
Powerful 0.65hp motor. great for collision repairs
