SPECIFICATION
The Pacific Rhino PFS 8 Drum Floor Sander will sand
hard and soft wood floors, cork and composition
floors that require rapid sanding and leveling to a fine
finish. A powerful motor drives a finely balanced
sanding drum covered in centrifugal drum rubber
which grips a continuous abrasive belt providing a
high quality finish to both hard and soft woods and
other surfaces. Completely self contained with a high
efficiency dust pickup the Pacific Rhino PFS 8 breaks
down into three simple component parts for easy
transport. The Pacific Rhino PFS 8 is a high
performance floor sander suitable for professional
and homeowner use.
