TOTURNBUFFER/POLISHER
"ON"
OR "OFF"
Slide switch forward to turn tool "On",
slide it backwards to shut tool "Off".
NOTE: After plugging tool into extension
cord, loop extension cord over tool's stub
length plug. Then wrap hook and loop strip
around extension cord to secure it in place.
IMPORTANT;
Read, understand and follow
all safety and user instructions in this
manual and all directions and warnings on
polishes and waxes.
APPLYING
WAX ONTO SURFACE
TO
BE POLISHED
(See Figures
5 to 8)
NOTE: To avoid splashinc wax, ALWAYS
start and stop the buffer / polisher on or
against the surface to be )olished.
1. Place extension cord over your shoulder
to keep it safely out of your way
(See Figure 5).
2. Turn buffer/polisher
"On".
3. Apply wax in a straight
line with either
a side-to-side
or back-and-forth
motion.
ALWAYS use broad, even strokes
when applying
wax. (See Figure 6).
4. Start applying
wax to the flat surfaces
(hood, trunk and roof) first. Wax one
section
at a time (See Figure 7).
5. After flat surfaces
are covered with wax,
do the sides. The perimeter
handle
system allows easy polishing
of
horizontal and vertical
surfaces. Hold tool
with the cord hanging free (See Figure 8).
6. Apply wax in a thin, even coat, Too
much wax does not add any more
protection
and only makes the wax
removal more difficult.
7. The random orbit motion of the
buffer/polisher
provides
wax application
that cannot be duplicated,
not even
"by hand".
IMPORTANT:
DO NOT apply excessive
pressure
against the work surface
with
this tool. The random
orbital motion
feature on this tool will perform
better
when less pressure
is applied. Applying
excessive
pressure
will slow the random

orbital motion and reduce the effectiveness
of the tool.
8. It is easiest to apply the wax to the entire surface before starting the removal
phase; however,
fellow the specific recommendations
of the wax or polish
being used.
