    Nano issue or user is a dummy

    I got mine today
    Having 2 issues

    1 I thread the counter balances till motor moves, followed by the backing plate..turn on and whole things comes off after a few seconds
    Only does this with the counter weights
    Backing plate stays attached to counter weight and counter weight untreads while machine is running

    If I thread in green adapter and brush, it stays attached

    Other issues is the direct drive button doesn`t engage/stay down
    With red counter weight I can push button down, but it doesn`t lock in and just pops up when I release pressure
    With blue counter weight it won`t even let me push button down..
    This is with it on off position

    Did everyone that received theirs have 2 empty circles in their case too?

    There is a double sided spanner wrench included in the kit. The narrow side of the spanner wrench is designed to tighten your chosen backing plate to the eccentric set (counter weight). The wide part of the spanner wrench is designed to tighten the eccentric set to the tool. If you are only going finger tight on the eccentric set, when you release the throttle the deceleration is causing it to loosen. You have to use to the spanner to tighten them.

    If I thread in green adapter and brush, it stays attached
    Yes, because the rotary drive doesn`t have the momentum to allow the sets to loosen when you release the throttle. Again, the spanner wrench is included to ensure the connection is secure.

    Other issues is the direct drive button doesn`t engage/stay down
    With red counter weight I can push button down, but it doesn`t lock in and just pops up when I release pressure
    With blue counter weight it won`t even let me push button down..

    I`m assuming you mean the transmission lock on the top of the tool? This button is only used to lock the tool when you tighten or loosen the eccentric sets using the spanner wrench. It should pop up when released and it should prevent the tool from rotating when its pressed down. If you can`t press it down, lightly rotate the assembly like 1/1000th of an inch (with the spanner wrench) and it will engage. You are just getting caught up between gears so the lock cannot slide down.

    Did everyone that received theirs have 2 empty circles in their case too?
    Yes.

    Re: Nano issue or user is a dummy

    I used the spanner wrench, didn`t know about the top button to lock it,(thought that was the button to lock the shaft)

    If button doesn`t push in from start for anyone, just keep turning witu the spanner wrench and it shall eventually push in to lock

    So back to rotory mode
    How come no rotary velco backing plate ..rubber isnfor the sanding discs I imagine.

    It came with directions, I just opened it quickly before work so didn`t bother with directions
    Well problem solved...user error

    There is a rotary backing plate.... Your tool should have 3 backing plates. A 50mm backing plate for the larger pads designed to be used with the 12mm random orbital function. A 30mm velcro backing plate which can be used on all three movemnts (3 mm, 12 mm, and rotary) and a rubber backing plate to be used on the 3mm (or 12mm) random orbital functions for sanding. Your kit didn`t include 1 30 mm velcro backing plate?

    My pleasure. I believe there are several sets of instructions in the kits (maybe for different languages).

    Is that an actual seam all the way around then finished smooth and seam seperated, or is that solid and it some how freakishly split
