got the Mirka deros 650,
Bought the unit used about a year ago, the guy said it still had some warranty, although i'm not sure for how long and I don't have any papers to confirm when it was bought either..probably it's over now anyways. And I'm pretty much sure that was the reason why the guy sold it because he probably knew it will soon start to get worse.
at first when I got it, it was superb, nice sander, gave such a great finish and worked just so sweet ,but... it left more swirlmarks than my other cheapo sander.. time went and the more and more I used it the worse it got, at the moment whatever I sand with it is instantly ridded with just insane amounts of swirlmarks/pigtails, whatever the material timber/concrete/metal/plasterboard everywhere it leaves nasty swirlmarks in huge quanitities, at first I tried swapping for different sanding papers, tried the abranets as well, but that was just waste of time as there's something wrong with my unit and it's just getting worse..
at the moment I still do 95% of my sanding with it, but in finishing stages I have to use hand or get out my cheapo old sander to get a finish that isn't messed up with marks.
was wondering maybe anyone knows what could be wrong with my unit and is it fixable? the machine wasn't exactly cheap even when used so binning it and buying a new one isn't really an option for me.
thanks.
