SPECIFIC SAFE INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING!
Two Handed Operation Required.This machine requires the use of two hands to ensure safe operation and should not be used when working at height. Personal protective equipment such as dust mask, gloves and apron should be worn. If a guard is supplied with tool it must be used at all times.
Ensure the work piece is properly supported.
Ensure that power tools are disconnected from the mains supply when not in use, before servicing, lubricating or making adjustments and when changing accessories such as polishing bonnets.
Ensure that the applicator bonnet is correctly and securely attached to the polisher pad.
Run the tool at no-load for 30 seconds in a safe position, stop immediately if there is considerable vibration or if other defects are detected. If this condition occurs, check the machine to determine the cause.Do not attempt to use the polisher for applying detergent or use for vehicle washing as a fatal electric shock could occur. This machine is for polishing only. Always check the applicator bonnets to ensure that they have not been contaminated with any abrasive that could scratch the surface being polished. Apply the polishing wax, cream of liquid to the applicator bonnet, not onto the surface to be polished.

Car Polisher-Safety instructions and Maintenance
Do not switch on until the bonnet is in contact with the surface. Maintain a firm grip on the machine before switching on.
Make sure that there are no sharp edges or protrusions that could snag or tear the applicator bonnet wash the applicator bonnets frequently or as required. An applicator bonnet heavily impregnated with wax can attract abrasive materials which could scratch the surface being polished.
Ensure the ventilation openings of the tool are kept clear when working in dusty conditions. If it should become necessary to clear dust, first disconnect the tool from the mains supply (clear the ventilation openings with a non metal object) avoid damaging internal parts.
Care and maintenance of your polisher
1. Pad cover can be machine-washed in cold water with a small amount of detergent on a short
wash cycle: then machine-dried at medium heat. However, hand washing and air drying is
recommended for longer pad life.
2. To prolong foam pad life and shape, store with pad face up.
3. Remove pad cover from pad when polisher is not in use so that pad can dry out and retain its
original shape.
4. Grip the polisher firmly but without downward pressure. Pressing too hard will slow down the
machine's movement and affect the quality of the work.
5. The most common error, however, is applying too much polish. If pad absorbs too much polish, it
will not last as long, and polishing is more difficult and takes longer.
6. If pad cover continually comes off pad, you may be using too much polish.
7. If wax seems difficult to buff, you may have used too much wax.
8. Use only mild soap and damp sponge to clean polisher. Do not immerse any part in liquid. If
polisher needs repair, return to an authorised dealer. There are no user serviceable parts in the
polisher.
