ULTIMATE DETAILING MACHINE 9
FEATURES & SAFETY
The Ultimate Detailing Machine Model 1000 has a powerful 4.2 Amp, 500
Watt motor. The motor is 20% more powerful than competitive products,
yet the machine is balanced and not tiring to use.
Handle
A reversible side handle makes the Ultimate Detailing Machine Model 1000
very easy to hold and control, even when working on vertical surfaces. Use
of the side handle is a personal preference. It adds a bit of safety, but indi-
viduals with large hands may find it just as easy to grip the machine by the
head end with one hand and the rear with the other.
Speed Control
The Ultimate Detailing Machine Model 1000 functions at 2,500 to 6,000
operations per minutes (OPM), controllable by a thumbwheel on the rear end
of the machine. The OPM measurement is used instead of revolutions per
minute (RPM) to distinguish the difference between orbits and center shaft
revolutions. At 6,000 OPM, this machine is doing a lot of work.
Recommended speeds
are as follows:
• Waxing & Buffing – 1 to 2
• Polishing & Cleaning – 3 to 4
• Removing Paint Defects – 5 to 6
Changing Tool Heads
Changing tool heads (e.g., backing
plates and other adapters) is easy.
You use the spindle wrench supplied
with the machine to hold the spindle
and rotate the tool head counter-
clockwise to loosen or clockwise to
tighten. When tightening, only turn
the tool-head turn once it has initially
seated. Do not over-tighten.
