CAUTION:
When placing battery pack in the tool, be sure raised

WARNING:
Battery tools are always in operating condition. Therefore,
switch should always be in the OFF ( O ) position when
not in use or carrying at your side.
PREPARE THE SURFACE
For best results, the surface should be clean and dry. Most
high-gloss surfaces can be cleaned with a mild soap and
water solution. For removal of stubborn dirt such as road
tar, grease, and bug stains, you can use a mild ammonia
solution such as that used in glass cleaners. Before using
any cleaning product, check the label for recommended
applications and follow the directions for use.
Never apply cleaner directly onto surface to be polished.
Apply to a clean cloth then use the cloth to clean the surface.
Do not use any type of abrasive cleanser as it may damage
or scratch the surface.
WARNING:
The drawstring must be tucked securely inside the bon-
net before turning the buffer/polisher on. Failure to do
so could result in the drawstring being caught between
the motor housing and orbiting pad, increasing the risk
of serious personal injury.
