manual carefully. Learn the
machine’s applications and
limitations, as well as specific
potential hazards peculiar to it.
2. Ground all machines. This machine
is “Double Insulated,” meaning that
all outside metal parts are insulated
from electrical power. Double
Insulated tools are equipped with a
polarized plug. This plug will fit in a
polarized outlet only one way. If the
plug does not fit fully in the outlet,
reverse the plug. If it still does not
fit, contact a qualified electrician to
install a polarized outlet. Do not
attempt to circumvent this safety
feature.
3. Do not expose tool to moisture.
Don’t use this machinery in damp
or wet locations. Keep out of rain.
4. Keep work area clean. Cluttered
areas invite injuries.
5. Keep children away. All children
should be kept away from the work
area. Never let a child handle a
tool without strict adult supervision.
6. Do not operate this tool if under
the influence of alcohol or drugs.
Read warning labels on
prescriptions to determine if your
judgment or reflexes are impaired
while taking drugs. If there is any
doubt, do not attempt to operate.
7. Use safety equipment. Eye
protection should be worn at all
times when operating this machine.
Use ANSI approved safety glasses.
Everyday eyeglasses only have

gloves, neckties, rings, bracelets, or
other jewelry may present a potential
hazard when operating this machine.
Please keep all apparel clear of the
machine.
9. Don’t overreach. Keep proper footing
and balance at all times when
operating this product.
10. Always disconnect the machine from
the power supply before servicing or
changing accessories.
11. Check for damage. Check your tool
regularly. If part of the tool is damaged
it should be carefully inspected to
make sure that it can perform its’
intended function correctly. If in doubt,
the part should be repaired. Refer all
servicing to a qualified technician.
Consult your dealer for advice.
12. Keep away from flammables. Do not
attempt to operate this tool near
flammables or combustibles. Failure to
comply may cause serious injury or
death.
13. Do not start tool while it is resting on
materials. Always turn tool on
BEFORE coming in contact with
material surface.
14. Do not set tool down until it has come
to a complete stop.
15. Always check to make sure that trigger
lock is not engaged before plugging
tool in.
16. Keep hands clear of cutting edges and
all moving parts.
17. Protect others in work area from
debris such as chips and sparks.
Provide barriers and shields as needed.
18. Secure work. Use a clamp, vise or
other practical means to hold your
work securely, freeing both hands to
control the tool.
19. Use the right tool for the job. Do not
use a tool or attachment to do a job
for which it was not intended. Do not
alter a tool.
20. Use proper accessories. Using
accessories no recommended may be

such as pipes, radiators, ranges, and
refrigerators. Hold your tool by
insulated, non-metal grasping surfaces.
Use a Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter
(GFCI) to reduce shock hazards.
23. Avoid accidental starting. Be sure your
tool is turned off before plugging it in.
Do not use a tool if the power switch
does not turn the tool on and off. Do
not carry a plugged-in tool with your
finger on the switch.

better at the rate for which it was
designed. Excessive force only causes
operator fatigue, increased wear and
reduced control.

tool by its cord or unplug it by pulling
the cord from the outlet. Pull the plug
rather than the cord to reduce the risk
of damage. Keep the cord away
from heat, oil, sharp objects, cutting
edges and moving parts.

dry, clean and free from oil and
grease.Periodically inspect tool cords

by qualified repair personnel. Service
or maintenance performed by
unqualified personnel could result in a
risk of injury.

shock or injury.
SPECIFIC SAFETY
RULES
1. Accessories must be rated for at least
the speed recommended on the tool
warning label. Wheels and other
accessories running over rated speed
can fly apart and cause injury.

when performing an operation where
the polishing tool may contact hidden
wiring or its own cord. Contact with a
“live” wire will make exposed metal
parts of the tool “live” and shock the
operator.

handle ports located at the base of the
gear housing.
2. Make sure tool is unplugged and lay it
on its back with the spindle upright.

of the rubber backing pad with the
notches on the spindle. Securely slide
rubber backing pad on to spindle.

on the back side of the metal gear
housing) and simultaneously tighten
spindle nut with spanner wrench. Be
sure to tighten nut securely.
6. After securing spindle nut, stretch
polishing bonnet over the face of the
rubber backing pad so that the bonnet
wraps around the back of the pad.
7. Pull the fit adjusting string on the
inside lip of the bonnet taut until all

OPERATING YOUR
POLISHER
Speed Control Dial
7. When finished release trigger switch.
Remember to let the polisher come to
a complete stop before resting tool on
any surface.
Lock On Switch
Trigger
1. Plug Polisher into standard 110/120
Volt wall socket.
2. Prior to contact with material surface,
pull trigger switch to ON position.
3. Evenly and carefully, lower polishing
bonnet surface to material surface. Do
not apply excessive pressure. Forcing
the polisher down against your work
surface puts unnecessary strain on
the motor and will likely produce
undesirable results in workmanship.
4. This Polisher features a speed control
dial, which controls the polisher’s
maximum rotations per minute. The
speed will remain at the chosen dial
setting by use of the trigger switch.
Dial settings range from 1 to 6. Lower
numbers correspond to lower speeds
and higher numbers correspond to
higher speeds. Generally, lower
speeds are recommended for tight
work areas and higher speeds are
ideal for large surface areas. Use the
setting which best suits your job.
5. To control the speed, set the dial to the
desired number and pull the trigger.
6. For extended work loads the Polisher
is equipped with a “lock ON” switch.
With trigger switch engaged, press
lock switch with thumb. To release
lock switch, press the trigger switch
again.
MAINTENANCE
Keep your tool in good condition by
adopting a regular maintenance program.
Before use, examine the general condition
of your tool. Inspect guards, switches, tool
cord and extension cord for damage.
Check for loose screws, misalignment,
binding of moving parts, improper mounting,
broken parts, and any other condition that
may affect its’ safe operation. If abnormal
noise or vibration occurs, turn the tool off
immediately and have the problem
corrected before further use. Do not use a
damaged tool.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of injury,
always unplug your tool before performing
any maintenance. Never disassemble the
tool or try to do any rewiring on the tool’s
electrical system.
CLEANING
Clean dust and debris from vents. Keep
the tool handles clean, dry and free of oil
or grease. Use only mild soap and damp
cloth to clean your tool since certain
cleaning agents and solvents are harmful
to plastics and other insulated parts.
Some of these harmful solvents include:
gasoline, turpentine, lacquer thinner, paint
thinner, chlorinated cleaning solvents,
ammonia, and household detergents
containing ammonia. Never use flammable
or combustible solvents around tools.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of injury,
electric shock and damage to the tool,
never immerse your tool in liquid or allow
liquid to flow inside the tool.
