Ryobi RS290G Repair: Why is my Ryobi making a weird noise?

Thu, 12 Mar 2026 00:28:41 -0700

My Ryobi sander started making a strange noise and is not sanding proper. I made sure there were no loose screws, cleaned it and then let it sit for a few hours to cool down as I had been sanding on and off for several hours. Unfortunately none of these seemed to help. What could be causing this and is it fixable ?

Ponceuse Orbital Filaire Dexter 350W - 350OS2.5: Dexter orbital sander pad slipping

Fri, 06 Feb 2026 00:36:32 -0700

My Dexter orbital sander runs and the electric motor spins but for some reason when applying pressure on the pad, the pad hardly spins. Eventually with enough pressure the pad will stop altogether while the motor still runs. This is unrelated to the hook and loop pad not holding the sanding paper disk. Any idea how to fix it? PC350RS 125 mm

Hi, the backing plate does have a visible circular line of chafe however it is not grooved or anything.

There is a center screw on the shaft I believe but I could not find a way to open it as it only can spin with the part beneath it.

The device has no lock button.

I belive this maybe a slipping belt issue, either a gone one or covered in dust. However I cannot find a way to get to it, or find a replacement from this seemingly non existant Dexter brand

DeWalt D26451: Should I try to repair or replace?

Mon, 22 May 2023 10:26:19 -0700

My sander came apart as I was sanding - one of the holes that a bolt attaches the pad to the sander became stripped (bolt isn’t stripped). I think the center thing with three holes needs to be replaced. I’m guessing the thing that sits on the pad rests on also needs to be replaced from the failure.

Is this repairable or do I need to buy a new sander?

The sander is on overdrive it has sped up and will not quit it won't even hold a pad on it because it's going so fast.

Makita BO5041: The sander pad only vibrating not spinning.

Tue, 21 Mar 2023 06:30:59 -0700

The sander pad only vibrating not spinning.

Replaced brake ring no change

The motor is spinning very fast, but the sanding pad is not spinning.

The sander pad can easily be spinned manually.

I dont know where is the connection between the motor and the sanding pad

Parts spinning: #30 inner bearing ring, #33 washer, #34 screw see attached drawings

Parts NOT spinning: , #29 outer Bearing Box , #32 Bearing Box Cover, #35 sander pad and #36 bolt,when assembled these are "sanding assembly" this assembly can be spinned manually but is not spinned by the motor see attached drawings

The dust shroud acts as if it is clogged and the dust collector is not doing its job.
