The floor polisher is equipped with a
circuit breaker. The action of the cir

breaker should trip, it can be reset
after
20
seconds by pressing the re
-
set button on the right hand side of
the motor housing.
NOTE:

ceeding. The most common cause is
an excessively soiled pad which
should be tu'rned over, cleaned
or
re
-
placed.
