General Operating Instructions

Grinding
1. Make sure Switch is in OFF-position,
then plug in the tool.
2. Turn on the tool.
3. Allow the tool to come up to full speed
before touching the wheel.
4. Apply the workpiece to the wheel,
allowing the tool to operate at full speed.
If the tool bogs down, use lighter pressure.
Buffing
1. Apply the desired polishing compound
(coarse or fine) onto the Buffing Wheel.
2. Make sure Switch is in OFF-position,
then plug in the tool.
3. Turn on the tool.
4. Using two hands, firmly hold the workpiece
and gently move it into contact with the
Buffing Wheel. To avoid kickback and
other hazards, only buff on the lower
quarter of the wheel. Note the directional
arrows on the front of the Buffer.
cAUTION! Only apply the workpiece to the
area of the Buffing Wheel that is rotating away
from the workpiece. Objects can be thrown
forcefully away from a Buffing Wheel causing
serious injury. Note the directional arrows
on the front of the Buffer, and work only on
the lower quarter of the Buffing Wheel.

5. To create a smoother surface,
keep the workpiece moving over the wheel.
6. To prevent accidents, turn
off the tool and unplug the tool from
its electrical outlet after use. Clean, then
store the tool indoors out of children's reach.
Note: Adjust distance between wheel and
work rest to maintain 1/16" separation as the
diameter of the wheel decreases with use.
Note: Move the workpiece with the direction of
the wheel, using a medium to hard pressure.
Note: The correct pressure must be applied
to the workpiece to provide the best finish.
Inadequate pressure will result in no significant
change in the workpiece. Excessive pressure
may slow down the action of the Buffing Wheel as
well as cause uneven marks on the workpiece.
5. Every few minutes, check the condition
and wear of the Buffing Wheels. Replace a
Buffing Wheel when it is worn or damaged.
6. When buffing is finished, remove the
workpiece from the Buffing Wheel
before turning Buffer OFF.
