APPLICATIONS
WARNING:
during tool operation.
WARNING:
possible injury to the operator or damage to the workpiece may occur.
POLISHING OPERATION
Hold the tool firmly using both handles. With the speed adjustment dial set at "1", turn the tool on and lightly
apply the rotating foam pad to the work surface. Allow the tool to operate freely using only the tool's weight as
pressure applied to the work surface.
Adjust the tool's speed using the speed adjustment dial as you become more familiar with the tool's operation
and the amount of work being performed by the chosen polishing pad. As a general rule, lower speeds are better
for polishing.
Maintain the foam pad at a angle of about 15 degrees to the work surface. NeVeR uSe THe PoLISHING PAD FLAT
To THe WoRK SuRFACe. use a long sweeping motion, back and forth, while slowly advancing along the surface
being polished. To avoid "burning" the surface or causing finish swirls, use a low speed and do not hold the tool
in one spot or use circular or spiral like patterns. Work from the highest point on the surface downwards to avoid
dust or polish from being thrown onto the completed section.
Always follow the wax and polish manufacturer's application and removal instructions for power polishers. Dirty
or clogged pads may be cleaned by washing in warm water with a mild detergent. Allow the cleaned pad to dry
completely before reuse.
SANDING OPERATION
WARNING:
setting the tool down after use onto a workbench or other surface.
WARNING:
times. Not doing so may cause the operator to lose control of the tool and may lead to
serious personal injury.
Be sure the workpiece is firmly clamped or otherwise secured in place. Remove any objects that may be struck
and thrown by the rotating abrasive discs. If using an extension cord, be sure it is held away from the work area.
Hold the tool firmly using both handles. With the speed adjustment dial set at "1", turn the tool on and lightly
apply the abrasive disc to the workpiece. NeVeR uSe THe SANDING DISC FLAT oN THe WoRK SuRFACe, keep the
abrasive disc at an angle of about 15 degrees while working the workpiece surface.
Adjust the tool's speed using the speed adjustment dial as you become more familiar with the tool's operation and
the amount of work being performed by the chosen grit abrasive disc. use working motions as described in the
earlier "Polishing" instructions. Do not allow the abrasive disc to sand in one spot too long or an uneven or gouged
surface may result. As a general rule, higher speeds are better for sanding.
When the sanding operation is completed, remove the tool from the work surface before turning it off.
Always wear safety glasses with side shields or a full face shield
Never switch on the tool when it is contacting the workpiece or
The tool and sanding disc must completely stop rotating before
Always maintain a firm grip on the tool with both hands at all
