Introduction

Use this guide to remove and replace a sanding disc on the Clarke Floor Sander 07163A.

This guide shows the removal of just one disc, but the procedure for the other two discs is the same.

    • Before you begin, be sure that the sander is unplugged and powered off.

    • Carefully tilt the sander back and lay it down on its side, exposing the three sanding pads on the bottom.

  2. WRxewIeJBi4PYQnD
    • Peel the hook-and-loop sandpaper disc off of the driver assembly.

    This picture doesn’t refer to the white pads between the sanding disk and the base plate.

    • Use a 3 mm hex key or driver bit to remove the six 11.9 mm-long screws securing the driver pad.

    • Remove the driver pad from the sanding disc.

    Would be nice if you gave the correct part numbers. The disk in the picture is NOT 11139A.

    MARK -

    Not even listed as the Driver Pad it’s called the Sanding Disc part # MP482000

    • Slide a thin 22 mm wrench underneath the sanding disc and clasp it onto the flat part of the motor driveshaft to keep the driveshaft from turning.

    • Use an 11 mm socket and socket wrench to remove the 16.5 mm-long bolt securing the sanding disc to the motor driveshaft.

    • Apply counter torque to the driveshaft wrench as you loosen the bolt to keep the sanding disc from spinning.

    • Take two pry bars and insert them underneath the sanding disc as close to the driveshaft as possible.

    • Apply pressure to the pry bars in opposite directions to carefully pry the sanding disc off of the driveshaft.

    • Remove the sanding disc from the floor sander.

    With this step do yourselves a favor, use a set of jaw pullers. So much faster.

    with this step I use 2: 1/4 in-20 x 1 in. flange bolt; insert in the 2 screw holes opposite of each other that you didn’t use to remove the 6 hex screws. do not screw them in all the way, and with the flange head attach a two claw puller.

    LUIS -

    actually just use a rachet to inch down the bolts that way you dont bend the bolts in the holes.

    • Use a pair of snap ring pliers to compress the retaining ring inside the driver and remove it from the sanding disc.

    • It may help to use a small flathead screwdriver to pry out the retaining ring as you remove it.

    • Place a 15/16" socket inside the center of the sanding disc and use a mallet to tap the bearing out of the disc.

Conclusion

To reassemble your device, follow these instructions in reverse order.
