INTRODUCTION The Supreme Finisher is a compact, durable machine designed for fast, complete finishing work. It will deliver efficient, dependable service when used correctly and with care. As with any piece of specialized equipment, for best performance the manufacturer’s instructions must be followed. BEFORE USING THE SUPREME FINISHER, BE AWARE OF THE FOLLOWING: Approved EYE PROTECTION should always be worn by the operator and others in the work area.
INSTALLATION The Supreme Finisher should be located on a flat, firm surface, in an area free of obstructions that could interfere with the safe operation of the equipment. The Finisher should be positioned and leveled on a rubber mat to obtain quiet operation with a minimum of vibration.
START-UP WARNING: Eye protection should always be worn by the operator and others in the work area when setting up the machine. Eye protection is required for protection from flying debris and dust, which could cause eye injury. Before shipment, your Supreme Finisher was checked at the factory for proper adjustment and operation.

LUBRICATION Your Supreme Finisher is equipped with sealed bearings throughout, which should be replaced if they ever wear out. Other parts should not require any lubrication, only cleaning the parts is required. Lubrication will only attract dust and would be more harmful than helpful.
V-BELT ADJUSTMENT AND REMOVAL All V-Belts on the Supreme Finisher should be checked monthly for proper tension and general condition. Loose V-Belts will decrease the power available to the various tools and lower the efficiency of your Finisher. If you discover a worn or frayed belt, replace it now so it won’t break at an inconvenient time.
