OPERATION

CHANGE TO BUFFING/POLISHING BONNET

See Figure 9.

Remove the battery pack from the buffer/polisher and re- move the application bonnet by loosening the drawstring and slipping the bonnet off the pad. Replace with buffing/ polishing bonnet, attaching it the same way as the applica- tion bonnet.

Buff the surface in the same order as it was polished, starting with large flat surfaces and ending with hard-to reach areas. Use the same motion as for polishing, a broad sweeping criss- cross pattern on large flat areas and small circular motions on all other areas. Remember to let the tool do the work.

WARNING:

Check polishing bonnets before each use. Make sure they are clean and free from any loose particles or foreign objects that may be embedded in the bonnet. Failure to do so could cause these particles or objects to be thrown from the tool resulting in possible serious injury.

WARNING:

To prevent loss of control and possible serious personal

 

injury, always operate the tool with both hands, keeping
