Abstract

A sander has a body, a motor mounted on the body, and a pad driven by the motor. A mechanism is interposed between the motor and the pad for transmitting the rotational motion of the motor to the paid in such a manner that the pad can perform a dual action including an orbital motion and a rotational motion. A resilient member is mounted on the body. The resilient member serves to contact the pad so as to produce frictional resistance against the rotation of the pad.
