How does one go about unscrewing the old pad and screwing this one in? There doesn't look to be much space there and I cannot see a flat one anything.

It unscrews easily - insert the wrench between the pad and counterbalance on drive shaft, hold the wrench and turn the pad til it comes loose. Same as most buffers.

My 6" sander came with a thin wrench (approx.1/8" thick x 9/16") and i used that to remove pad. From manual:position wrench to engage flats on spindle it may be necessary to rotate pad by hand, while holding spindle with wrench rotate pad counterclockwise to remove. then reverse procedure to install new one.

The Porter Cable sander comes with a 'wrench' that fits on a nut in between the sander itself and the disc. If you have that wrench, you should be able to lock it on and counter clockwise spin the old pad off.

There should be a flat wrench that came with the porter cable.also when this is remove you should have access to the counter weight for 6 or 5 inch disks. I believe the extra counter weight is purchased separate.

None, if you don't over torque it. If its a gyp. Bd. Ceiling it might leave a indentation from over torqueing. Try to position it under a beam.if a indentation is made, the pad is about 2"×3"

Somewhere I saw you were supposed to roll the original pad off. Not rip. so, remove, carefully.

I don't believe you get holders with the new pads, guess they think you have kept the holders. You could contact them and see if they have the holders available; shouldn't be very expensive. Hope this helps. I usually store mine together so I don't misplace them.

Sandra, I dont see why it wouldnt fit just fine, especially if the existing pad is a little thin. I bought this for my mother, and she just loves it. The quality seems to be good too. Hope this helps. Have a nice fall..... Laura

I would contact Ingles to see if you can get a replacement pad. They should be able to provide you one. Good luck!

There are some clips on the side that they snap into place you have to use your finger nail or something to push them up or in to be able to get it open. Once you get those going then you should try to wedge something in there so as it stays open and then do the others. Either do it from the top or the bottom and then go from there. Be gentle. its difficult to open but once you put your "CLEANED" i pad in there next to nothing gets to it. Dust water etc and every few(4/5) months pop it open and clean it out.

All you have to do is press the edge gently with your fingertip and slide the pad out. There's nothing you have to open or unlatch.

I suspect that the plastic on the bottom of the pad is supposed to be removed, but I left it on. That way it is easier to swivel around and adjust. I personally will stick a fitted piece of vinyl to the bottom of the pad if the plastic covering on it ever shows wear. I hope this helps.

I have not had to change it on this one however I had one a few years ago for another cat. She used it for years and I replaced the pad dozens of times. I know they look flimsy but they never broke. Pull the pad out from under one and then gently pull/wiggle the rest of the pad out. Good luck (again, they are stronger than they look).

Screw a screw into the center and once snug, pull it out. It may require a bit of muscle but it will come out. Use a large pair of pliers. Good luck

The pad is the inside of control device. If you take it apart it should fit inside the new one.

Yes, I've replaced the pad with a standard size, though it took so doing. I was about to return the padfolio, but was able to shimmy the new pad in around the old one and then pull that piece out. It's a tight fit, but closes fine in the end.

the small black rubber piece should wrap around the smallest PCB. take it off the old one, should be fairly easy and just slide it over the replacement
