    I need to replace the cord on my 15, the rubber came off by the plug and the connection is poor. Can someone advise me on how to do this. What kind of cord do I need to buy and how to replace thanks

    Re: Replacing Rupes power cord

    Is it frayed by the wall plug? Maybe just cut the cord and buy a plug at home depot. Connect the wires appropriately. I've done this with other tools and extension cords. Easier and cheaper than replacing.

    If the buffer has a build quality issue, I would contact Rupes and see if they would do anything for you. If it's something you did then it's on you.

    Really isn't to bad to replace. Hardest thing is soldering and reassembly.
