- Does it come with a battery and charger?
- No. It is sold as a bare tool, so you need an M18 18V battery and charger, which are sold separately.
- What size sanding discs does it use?
- It uses standard 5 in hook-and-loop discs, so common 5 in 8-hole or multi-hole paper fits.
- Can it connect to a shop vacuum?
- Yes. It has a dust port for a hose, which collects better than the onboard canister on long jobs.
- Is it good for fine finishing?
- It can finish, but its strength is material removal. Variable speed lets you slow it down for finer grits.
- How does it compare with a corded sander?
- It matches corded 5 in sanders on speed and control but trades unlimited runtime for cordless freedom and added weight.
- What can I sand with it?
- Wood, metal, plastic and concrete, with the right grit and disc.
