Installing and removing abrasive disc
CAUTION:
Make sure that the backing pad is
secured properly. Loose attachment will run out of
balance and cause an excessive vibration which may
cause loss of control.
Remove all dirt and foreign matter from the backing
pad. Thread an abrasive disc onto the backing pad
while pressing in the shaft lock. Hand tighten securely.
To remove the disc from the backing pad, follow the
installation procedure in reverse.

may lead to decreased polishing efficiency, damaged
pad, or shorten tool life.
NOTICE:
Continuous operation at high speed
may damage work surface.

General operation

1. Make sure that the workpiece is properly sup-
ported and both hands are free to control the tool.
2.
Hold the tool firmly with one hand on the switch
handle and the other hand on the side grip.
3. Turn the tool on, letting the wheel reach full speed,
and then carefully enter into operation moving the tool
forward over the workpiece surface.
4. Having finished, switch the tool off and wait until the wheel
has come to a complete stop before putting the tool down.
Polishing operation
1. Surface treatment
Use a wool pad for rough finishing then use a sponge
pad for fine finishing.
2. Applying wax
Use a sponge pad. Apply wax to the sponge pad or work
surface. Run the tool at low speed to smooth out wax.
CAUTION:
Do not apply excessive wax or
polishing agent. It will generate more dust and may
cause eye or respiratory diseases.
NOTE: First, perform a test waxing on an inconspicu-
ous portion of the work surface. Make sure that the tool
will not scratch the surface or result in uneven waxing.
