USING THE POLISHER
IMPORTANT: Do not add too much wax to the applicator pad, as it will
increase the time and effort needed to complete the task. A
saturated pad may also separate from the disc pad during use.
1. Clean the workpiece's surface to remove dust, dirt, oil or grease.
2. Place a clean foam applicator pad securely onto the backing disc.
3. Apply a smear of wax polish (not included) evenly on the clean
foam applicator pad. The pad will absorb some of the wax.
4. Place the polishing pad on the workpiece and squeeze the trigger.
• The speed is controlled by adjusting the air regulator.
5. DO NOT apply pressure to the polisher until it reaches full speed.
Apply l i g h t p r e s s u r e w h i l e m o v i n g t h e p o l i s h e r a c r o s s t h e
s u r f a c e i n sweeping strokes, creating a cris-cross pattern. Apply any
polishing wax evenly.
6. Increase the air flow if more power is needed to accomplish the
task. DO NOT exceed the maximum airflow or PSI (see Specifications).
• A larger tool may be required if the tool still does not have
sufficient force at maximum pressure and sufficient airflow.
7. Add additional wax to the pad as needed. Release the trigger and
allow the polisher to come to a complete stop, add a small
amount wax and resume operation.
8. After the wax has been applied to the vehicle's sur face, release
the trigger and disconnect the air
9. Allow sufficient time for wax to dry.
10. Place a clean wool buffing pad securely onto the disc.
11. Start the polisher and begin buffing off the dried wax.
12. When you have removed as much wax as you can with the polisher.
release the trigger and disconnect the air supply.
13. Remove the buffing pad from the backing disc. Using the buffing pad,
remove the wax from all hard-to-reach areas of the vehicle.
14. To prevent accidents, release the trigger, detach the polisher from the air
supply and safely discharge any residual air pressure in the tool.
POLISHING TIPS
• DO NOT use excess pressure on the pad as this will shorten its life.
• Allow the pad to reach working speed before polishing.
