When Processing Is Finished; Polishing And Buffing; When Cleaning Is Finished - Truvox International Cimex Heavy Duty 48 Manual Del Usuario

should be changed to 'Instalok' type fitted with suitable
pads for the polishing process. Do not use rusty or
discoloured polishing pads.
• Do not leave the machine stationary during polishing, as
marks will be left on the floor which may result in the
whole procedure having to be repeated.
• Apply polish from a spray bottle; apply sparingly just
ahead of the machine as you work. Do not leave wet
polish on the floor; work in immediately as it can cause
spotting on the floor.
• While processing, the technician should frequently
inspect the abrasive pads for wear or damage.
• The survey should determine which grade of disc is
used to begin the process. Normally coarse are the
starting grit, except where lippage is extreme or surface
damage is very slight.
• To eliminate lippage, weights may be added to the
machine.
• The operator should examine the floor surface following
each processing grade to determine whether the
removal of wear or scratching is effective.

4.4 When processing is finished

• When processing is finished, unplug the machine from
the power supply, remove weights, raise the brush head
and remove the drive backs, and abrasive discs or
pads. Wipe over the machine with a damp cloth.
• Remove and clean finishing discs and polishing pads.

4.5 Polishing and buffing

• Fit drive discs and pads suitable for the surface to be
polished.
• Ensure the floor is clean and dry.
• Walk slowly behind the machine, overlapping each pass
to ensure an even finish.
• Do not keep the machine rotating on one spot for more
than 10-15 seconds, as this could cause overheating
and damage the floor surface.
• Should the machine start to vibrate, or resist the buffing
action on the floor, check the cleanliness of the pads.
When dirty on one side the pad may be reversed.

4.6 When cleaning is finished

• When cleaning is finished, unplug the machine from the
power supply, raise the brush head and remove brushes
or pads, and wipe over the machine with a damp cloth.
• Wash brushes and pads in warm soapy water, rinse and
allow to dry naturally.
5. Storage
• After use always wipe down and dry the machine, and
remove and clean the drive backs, pads or brushes.
Clean the rotating dust cover (10) and check the
condition of the brush seals (9). The seals should be
cleaned periodically to maintain their effectiveness.
• The solution tank should be emptied and flushed out
with clean water.
• The machine should normally be stored with the handle
in the raised position and the brush head tipped back.
Never leave the brush head resting on the drive pins.
• Wrap supply cord around the handlebar and cable
winder ensuring that the plug is not trailing on the floor.
• Store the machine in a dry indoor area only.
