PRACTICAL POLISHER APPLICATION
1. Curved surface as well as plain one is treated for
finishing. It is recommended to hold the polisher
without pushing on the material, and make the best
of the weight of the machine alone. As the excessive
pressure on the polishing surface will not only bring
unsatisfactory result but also apply overload on the
motor.
2. Depending on the finishing degree of the surface,
use the polishing compound or wax. In order to
attain the maximum polishing effect, first polish the
surface with the fine sand paper using the sander,
than polish it with the polishing compound using
the wool bonnet, and than finish with wax. Apply
a small quantity of the compound and wax to the
surface, and polish with the wool bonnet.
3. Don't let the cord touch the wool bonnet during
its operation, for the rotating wool bonnet may
catch the cord and get caught it in.
4. Switching on the polisher
Pulling the trigger of switch and push the stopper,
it keeps the switched-on condition and it is
convenient for the continuous operation. When
switched off, the stopper can be disengaged by
means of pulling the trigger again.
5. Precaution after use
Do not lay the polisher down immediately after
using on a place where there are many shavings,
much dirt and dust until it has completely stopped
revolving.
