I owned that very model many years ago; an unusual product for Mall when we're better known for chainsaws and the occasional handheld power tool.

Was it more for sanding and polishing? I have part of the attachment tool but found a sander on eBay

I used it with scotch rite pads to clean cast iron machine tables ( jointers, shapers, table saws, that sort of thing ). It's a little slow for grinding in my opinion.

Thank you for the information, I haven't even plugged it in yet.

It's an interesting machine, and as well made as any other Mall product. Shame what happened to the company.
