6. Operation
Secure your workpiece. Make sure that the work-
piece is held securely by a clamping device or a
vise.
Switching the equipment ON/OFF
The equipment is turned on (I) and off (0) with
the ON/OFF switch (Fig. 3 / Item 3). However, the
equipment will only start running after the speed
control has been activated (see section 6.3).
Before switching off , lift the machine off the sur-
face to the worked.
6.1 Using as a polishing machine
Only use special waxing and polishing agents
suitable for the machine.
When using waxing and polishing agents,
observe the instructions issued by their ma-
nufacturer!
The hook-and-loop fastener enables easy chan-
ging of the polishing attachment.
CAUTION!
To prevent damage to the surfaces of the work-
pieces you wish to polish, make sure that you
observe the following instructions:
•
Wash the vehicle before polishing, and keep it
free of any foreign bodies.
•
Make sure that the polishing attachment
supplied is free of any foreign bodies when
being used.
•
Make sure that the polishing attachment is
always mounted precisely in the center of the
sanding/grinding disk.
•
Before you start the equipment, check to en-
sure that the attachments are securely fitted.
•
Never touch the area you wish to polish with
the edge of the sanding/grinding disk.
•
To polish, select the speed required for your
purposes using the speed controller (see
section 6.3). The optimum working speed de-
pends on the material to be worked and the
(polishing) agent used. If necessary, this can
be established by conducting practical tests.
•
The polishing machine must lie fully on the
surface to be polished.
•
Mask plastic parts, since these change color
when polished and can become unattractive
in appearance.
•
Only polish in the shade, and never polish hot
paint.

•
Polish corners and edges very carefully. The
paint layer is thinnest at corners and edges.
As a precaution, you can mask these and po-
lish them by hand.
•
Excessive pressure results in poor perfor-
mance and early wearing of the accessory
used. Sensitive surfaces may be damaged
e.g. due to excessive speed or too high a
contact pressure.
Important! Adjust the speed to the surface to
be worked before applying the machine to it
and allow the machine to run up to the selected
speed. Depending on the speed, this may take a
few seconds. Particularly when working with the
foam plastic pad, the speed may fl uctuate due
to diff erent surface qualities (diff erent friction) in
the lower speed ranges. This is not an equipment
defect.
Use the foam plastic pad to apply the
polishing agent (Fig. 10).
•
First work on the large level surfaces such as
the engine hood, boot lid and roof.
•
Spread a little polish at points over the foam
plastic pad. Press the foam plastic pad onto
the surface to be polished several times.
The polish is pressed into the foam plastic
pad and transferred onto the surface to be
polished. This prevents the polish on the foam
plastic pad from being sprayed around when
the machine is switched on.
•
Apply the polish at low speed.
•
Only work smaller sections in one go.
•
Work the sections evenly, crosswise and
lengthwise (first vertically, then horizontally).
•
Then move on to working the smaller areas
(e.g. doors).
Finish-polishing
•
Use the synthetic polishing attachment (Fig.
11b) to remove the layer of polishing agent
and finish the polishing work.
•
To fit the synthetic polishing attachment,
pull the edge upwards (Fig. 11a), press the
attachment onto the hook-and-loop surface
of the polishing disk and then pull the edge
downwards again (Fig. 11b). The edge of the
polishing disk is covered by the polishing
attachment.
•
Important! Do not exert any pressure on the
polishing machine!
