• Inspect the bonnet frequently for wear, dirt or imbedded
debris.
Caution! Do not allow the power cord to contact the
rotating bonnet as it may become quickly tangled
around it. If this occurs, turn tool OFF and unplug
the power cord before attempting to untangle the
cord. If the cord is damaged, have it repaired or
replaced at your local tool repair station:
• Never use a damaged or torn bonnet.
• Wear proper clothing, short sleeves, nothing loose or
bulky, such as shop coat, etc.
• Do not turn tool on unless the polishing bonnet is against
surface being polished.
• Be extremely careful when polishing around sharp or
protruding objects on the car body.
Caution! Do not use abrasive or rubbing
compounds. The abrasive nature of these products
can damage painted surfaces.
Caution! Wear appropriate hearing protection
during use. Under some conditions and duration of
use, noise from this product may contribute to
hearing loss.
Use of extension cords
Make sure the extension cord is in good condition before
using. Always use the proper size extension cords with the
tool – that is, proper wire size for various lengths of cord and
heavy enough to carry the current the tool will draw. Use of an
undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in
loss of power and overheating. For proper size cords see
chart below.

Before operating
Note: Although this discussion deals with polishing a car, your
polisher is capable of polishing a wide array of flat surfaces
such as hardwood floors, furniture, boats and other surfaces
that could use an occasional shine. Before you begin, make
sure the car is clean and dry. The work area should be dry
also. If necessary, remove road tar with a general cleaner
before polishing. Also remove excess grease spots, bug
stains, etc.
Selecting the correct operating speed
The work speed of the rotating part is controlled by the timing.
Switch indicated in figures. The further the switch is moved
away from its off position, such as from 1 to 2, the faster the
work part rotates.
Operation
• Make sure the polisher is in the “OFF” position before
plugging the polisher into an appropriate power outlet.
• To switch your polisher on, press the on/off switch. To
switch it off press the on/off switch.
