    Re: Flex 3401 heat question.

    I called Flex about this and was told if it gets too hot there is a sensor inside and it will shut down until it's cool enough to use again.

    Re: Flex 3401 heat question.

    It is normal for this machine to generate heat. Even more so when you crank it up to the higher speed settings.

    Re: Flex 3401 heat question.

    Heat is a by product of the forced/gear driven design. 3401 is the most "mechanical" type polisher available.
