USING POLISHER

1.If item to be polished is light enough to be moved by the rotating polishing pad, it should be securely anchored to prevent possible bodily injury.

2.Hold polisher firmly by the rear and auxiliary handles, making sure polishing pad is clear of work and foreign objects. Start polisher and lower at an angle so that approximately 1/2 or slightly less of the polishing pad contacts the work.

3.Move polisher in long continuous sweeping strokes. DO NOT HOLD POLISHER IN ONE SPOT as this will create heat and possibly damage surface being polished.

4.Lift polisher from work before turning off motor.

5.Always be sure motor has stopped before setting polisher down.

POLISHING TIPS

USE ONLY QUALITY POLISH MADE FOR POWER POLISHING APPLICATION and apply per manufacturer’s instructions.

For best results, thoroughly clean surface to be polished.

When polishing automobiles, wash the car thoroughly to remove dust, dirt and other abrasives that may scratch the finish.

Buffs or pads may become gummed up after a period of use. They may be washed out with soap and water. Shake out as much water as possible and then spin dry on machine. Do this in an area where you will not splatter articles.
