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
always wear safety glasses with side shields or a full face shield during tool operation.
the tool and sanding disc must completely stop rotating before setting the tool down after use onto
a workbench or other surface.
always maintain a firm grip on the tool with both hands at all times. Not doing so may cause the
operator to lose control of the tool and may lead to serious personal injury.
be sure the work piece is firmly clamped or otherwise secured in place. Remove any objects that
may 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 work piece. Never use the sanding disc flat on the work
surface, keep the abrasive disc at an angle of about 15 degrees while working the work piece sur-
face.
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.
When the sanding operation is completed, remove the tool from the work surface before turning
it off.
