Model 2400 Burnisher Operating Instructions
1. Install the polishing pad on to the pad driver. Make
sure your installing a true 20” polishing type pad. Then
install the locking centering device cup by lining up
the threads on the pad driver and the cup and push
straight down, or just screw the cup devise onto the
pad driver. Hand tighten the cup to the pad driver. Do
not force the centering cup if cross-threaded. Because
of patented centering cup Just hit the high side of the
cup with the palm of your hand to straighten out the
cross threading problem. To remove the centering cup
hold onto it with one hand and with the other hand
spin the pad driver in the opposite direction until the
cup is removed.
2. Plug the machine into a standard 115-volt grounded
wall outlet. If an extension cord is required, it must
be 3-wire cord. The burnisher is equipped with a 3
wire, 14-gauge cord, 50 feet long. If the extension
cord to be used is more than 25 feet a larger wire
size cord should be used, preferably a 12- gauge
cord no longer than 50 feet long. Failure to use a
lager size cord may result in reduced performance
and motor overheating. After the cord is properly
plugged into the outlet a red light will illuminate on
the rear of the operators handle telling the operator
you now have power to the machine.
3. After the pad is on the machine stand the burnisher up straight on top of the pad so it is flat on the
floor. If you are starting with a new pad, decrease the pad pressure adjustment centering wheel as far
as it can go. This will raise your pad to the highest position. Next by stepping onto the foot locking
lever, located on the right side of the machine, push downward with your foot to release the handle.
While the handle is lowered down take one of your thumbs and pull either safety interlocking switches,
located at the top of the handle, with you fingers grab the lever switch and pull at the same time.
