Hi

You don't specify which model you have but you can download the user manuals from the Axminster website:

The parts diagram / list may help you identify the means of retention.

Regards Mick

Hi pip

If it's the AWEBDS610, I bought one in the sale a few weeks ago and I'm pretty sure there was a stud in the centre of the disk which probably locks it on to the spindle. I've stuck the sanding disk on and don't want to wreck it by taking it back off to look.

Why don't you give Axi a ring. I'm sure someone will be able to help.

If in doubt, part of what makes Axminster so popular is their outstanding customer service, give them a call and I'm sure someone there will help you out. It's even a "normal" phone number, so probably inclusive to your mobile phone contract
