Couldn\'t adjust the tracking of the belt, & spindle knob worn
Got a free sander from a friend. Knob that hold the sander drum on the unit was missing. The knob for adjusting the sanding belt tracking was also missing.
This Ridgid oscillating sander has a belt sander and drum sander. They are interchangeable. But without this threaded knob which has counter clock threads and a couple of hard to find washers the belt sander part is useless.
I was able to find what I needed and get my sander going again.
