Abstract
In an example embodiment, a floor sander comprises a motor having at least two selectable speeds, and a sanding adaptor driven to rotate about a rotational axis by the motor. The sanding adaptor includes a planetary disk that rotates about the rotational axis of the sanding adaptor. In addition, the sanding adaptor includes a plurality of sanding head units, each of which is coupled to the planetary disk for independent rotational movement. Each sanding head unit therefore rotates about its own rotational axis independently of any other sanding head unit or the planetary disk. An isolator is also provided, and is positioned generally between the planetary disk and the motor.
