replacement of sanding disk Dremel 1731

[Gwassenaar]

I want to replace the sanding disk of my Dremel 1731. How can I do that without taking apart the entire machine?

Loosen the two thumbscrew that hold the angle adjustment table. when loose lift straight up on the table. It comes off easily and the disc is then exposed. Remove the old disc and clean the surface with a non-petroleum product. The replacement is an adhesive backed 5 inch disc in your choice of grit. Peel off the cover sheet, align the disc to the wheel and press it firmly to the wheel. When replacing the table, each adjuster has a lip that goes above the guide on the table. Make sure the table guide is under the lip and align the table at 0 when level, Tighten the thumbscrew and you're done.
