DESCRIPTION

KNOW YOUR BUFFER / POLISHER
NOTE: Before attempting to use your buffer / polisher, familiarize yourself
with all of the operating features and safety requirements.
Your Craftsman buffer / polisher has a precision-built electric motor and it should be
connected to a 120-volt, 60-Hz AC ONLY power supply (normal household current).
DO NOT operate on direct current (DC). The large voltage drop will cause a loss of
power and the motor will overheat. If the tool does not operate when plugged into
correct 120-volt, 60-Hz AC ONLY outlet, check the power supply. This buffer / polisher
has a stub length, 2-wire power cord (no adapter needed).
This Craftsman Buffer / Polisher has the following features:
1. Powerful 1.0 Amp permanent magnet Motor with 3800 Orbits per Minute
provides the power needed for quality waxing, buffing and polishing.
2. Precision tuned Counterweight system reduces vibration for smooth,
comfortable operation with less operator fatigue
