FLEX Vacuum Hose Adapter for GE 5 – 406716

The GE 5 giraffe sander is lightweight machine designed with high flexibility and superior adjustment functions for sanding projects involving ceilings and walls. When used in conjunction with the Vacuum Hose Adapter for GE 5, there is increased efficiency with your sanding project. The design of the GE 5 sander includes an effective dust extraction process that removes the particles form between the sanding pad and the dust ring, and this is further supported the dust reduction construction of the hose adapter. It is important to reduce the build-up of dust or other particles when sanding, giving the potential for an explosion or fire created by static electricity. This is serious concern when working sanding or polishing projects that release flammable particles such as wood or drywall.

Metal dust build-up can also be a problem for electrical components, since motor damage can occur over long-term use. The motor or engine can become clogged and weighed down with gunk that has collected over use and exposure. This creates unnecessary wear and tear on the motor and shorten its life. By using the hose adapter with cast electronic components, it prevents metal dust from seeping in between crack or spaces and clogging the motor. This will extend the service life of the entire GE 5 giraffe unit. The giraffe sander and hose adapter are ideal for use with paint preparation and polishing projects. For maximum efficiency, only use the recommended adapter connection as specified by the manufacturer.
