Unwrap the Power Cord and plug it into a properly grounded outlet.
Unlatch the handle by pushing forward on the Handle Release Latch
with your foot. Continue to hold latch while pulling the handle back. It
is normal for the base of the machine to lift off of the floor slightly when
the handle is lowered. It will pull itself down against the floor as soon as
the motor is started.
Hold one of the Operator Hand Grips firmly, push the Safety Lock
Button and then compress the switch levers to start the motor. NOTE:
When the dual controlled switch levers are released, the machine shuts
off immediately.
Push the machine forward in a straight line, at a slow walking speed.
Overlap each pass about 1-3 inches (25-75 mm).
When using a polishing pad, check every 15 minutes to see if the pad
is loaded up with wax and dirt. If it is, turn the pad over to expose the
clean side, or install a clean pad.
Lift the Handle until it locks in the upright position.
Unplug the Power Cord and wrap it around the Handle Release Latch
and the right Operator Handle Grip.
Remove the pad from the machine. Clean the pad or brush and hang
it up to dry. Allow buffing pads to dry completely before using again.
Store brushes and pad holders separate from the machine. Never store
the machine with the pad holder or brush on the machine.
Wipe the entire machine with a clean, damp cloth.
Inspect the entire machine and all accessories for damage. Perform
any required maintenance or repairs before storage.
Store the machine in a clean, dry place with the Handle locked in the
upright position.
