and/or serious personal injury.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.
understand all instructions.
WORK AREA
• Keep your work area clean and well lit.
Cluttered benches and dark areas invite
accidents.
• Do not operate power tools in explosive
atmospheres, such as in the presence of
flammable liquids, gases, or dust. Power
tools create sparks which may ignite the
dust or fumes.
• Keep bystanders, children, and visitors
away while operating a power tool.
Distractions can cause you to lose
control.
ELECTRICALSAFETY
• Double insulated tools are equipped with
a polarized plug (one blade is wider than
the other.) This plug will fit in a polarized
extension cord 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 instalt a polarized
outlet. Do not change the plug in any way
to make it fit your extension cord. Double
insulation eliminates the need for the
three-wire grounded power cord and
grounded power supply system.
• Avoid body contact with grounded
surfaces such as pipes, radiators,
ranges and refrigerators. There is an
increased risk of electric shock if your
body is grounded.
• Don't expose power tools to rain or wet
conditions. Water entering a power tool
will increase the risk of electric shock.
• Do not abuse the extension cord. Never
use the cord to carry the tools or pull the
plug from an outlet. Keep cord away
from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving
parts. Replace damaged cords
immediately. Damaged cords increase
the risk of electric shock.
• When operating a power tool outside, use
an outdoor extension cord marked "W-A"
or "W." These cords are rated for outdoor
use and reduce the risk of electric shock.
PERSONALSAFETY
• Stay alert, watch what you are doing and
use common sense when operating a
power tool. Do not use tool while tired or
under the influence of drugs, alcohol, or
medication. A moment of inattention
while operating power tools may result in
serious personal injury.
• Dress properly. Do not wear loose
clothing or jewelry. Contain long hair.
Keep your hair, clothing, and gloves
away from moving parts. Loose clothes,
jewelry, or long hair can be caught in
moving parts.
• Avoid accidental starting. Be sure switch
is off before plugging in. Carrying tools
with your finger on the switch or
plugging in tools with the switch on
invites accidents.
• Do not overreach. Keep proper footing
and balance at all times. Proper footing
and balance enables better control of
the tool in unexpected situations.
• Use safety equipment. Always wear eye
protection. Dust mask, non-skid safety
shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection
must be used for appropriate conditions.
TOOLUSEAND CARE
• Use clamps or other practical ways to
secure and support the workpiece to a
stable platform. Holding the work by
hand or against your body is unstable
and may lead to loss of control.
• Do not force tool. Use the correct tool for
your application. The correct tool will do
the job better and safer at the rate for
which it is designed.
• Do not use tool if switch does not turn it
on or off. A tool that cannot be controlled
with the switch is dangerous and must
be repaired.
• Disconnect the plug from the power
source before making any adjustments,
changing accessories, or storing the
tool. Such preventive safety measures
reduce the risk of starting the tool
accidentally.
TOOLUSEAND CARE
• Store idle tools out of reach of children
and other untrained persons. Tools are
dangerous in the hands of untrained
users.
• Maintain tools with care. Properly
maintained tools are less likely to bind
and are easier to control.
• Check for misalignment or binding of
moving parts, breakage of parts, and
any other condition that may affect the
tool's operation. If damaged, have the
tool serviced before using. Many
accidents are caused by poorly
maintained tools.
• Use only accessories that are
recommended by the manufacturer for
your model. Accessories that may be
suitable for one tool may create a risk of
injury when used on another tool.
SERVICE
• Tool service must be performed only by
qualified repair personnel. Service or
maintenance performed by unqualified
personnel may result in a risk of injury.
• When servicing a tool, use only identical
replacement parts. Follow instructions in
the maintenance section of this manual.
Use of unauthorized parts or failure to
follow maintenance instructions may
create a risk of electric shock or injury.
Before you begin, make sure your 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.
NOTE: The Wax & Polishing Solution
containers shown in the illustrations are
representative. Yours may look different.
A
Place the blue wax applicator bonnet on
pad as shown. Make sure the elastic is
tucked down securely and evenly around
the underside of the pad.
B FOR PASTE WAX
Spread about a heaping teaspoonful of wax
evenly over the entire surface of the wax
applicator bonnet. Use a putty knife or any
flat object. DO NOT APPLY WAX DIRECTLY
C FOR LIQUID WAX
Apply three swirls of liquid wax on the wax
applicator bonnet. DO NOT APPLY WAX
DIRECTLY TO CAR. This first application
should do about 1/4 of the car. For the
second and third applications of wax, use
half the quantity stated above. The bonnet
will not absorb as much when reloading.
D
The polisher is turned on and off by
squeezing and releasing the trigger
switch. The LOCK button on the trigger
switch can be used to lock the machine in
ON position while it is running. To lock,
depress the LOCK button as you release
the trigger switch. To release LOCK, press
the trigger switch.

There is a cord lock feature on the handle
to prevent the extension cord from
detaching during use. Plug the cord into
the unit, then secure the cord as shown.
F
G
After flat surfaces are covered with wax,
do sides of the car. Hold the polisher as
shown. Let the cord hang free. It is not
necessary to use a criss-cross motion on
doors and fenders.
ALWAYS START AND STOP THE
POLISHER ON OR AGAINST THE CAR
SURFACE.
Place the extension cord over your
shoulder and do flat surfaces first---hood,
trunk and roof. Cover areas quickly with
broad, sweeping strokes in a criss-cross
pattern.
DO NOT press down on the polisher.
The machine's action, not pressure,
does the best job.
H
Remove the wax applicator bonnet and
use it to hand-polish all hard-to-reach
surfaces; under the bumpers, around the
door handles, etc.
Throw away the wax applicator bonnet
and put a clean terrycloth bonnet on the
polisher.

Polish the wax in the same order it was

• Terrycloth bonnets are 100% cotton and
can be machine-washed in cold water
with a small amount of detergent, then
machine-dried at low heat. However,
hand-washing and air drying is recom-
mended for longer terrycloth bonnet life.
• Wax applicator bonnets are to be used
only once, then thrown away.
• To prolong pad life and shape, always
store polisher with pad face up.
• Remove bonnet from pad when polisher
is not in use so that pad can dry out and
retain its original shape.
• Badly oxidized paint may require several
applications. DO NOT USE ABRASIVE
COMPOUNDS.
• The most common error is applying too
much wax. If pad becomes saturated, it
will not last as long, and polishing will
be more difficult and take longer.
• If applicator bonnet continually comes off
pad, you may be using too much wax.
• If buffing seems difficult, you may have
used too much wax.
• Use only mild soap and a damp sponge
to clean polisher. Do not immerse any
part in liquid. If polisher needs repair,
use only identical replacement parts
illustrated and listed on Page 6.
• The lamb's wool bonnet is only to be
used for the final buff. Do not use it to
apply or remove wax.
2. Remove center bolt with 1/2" deep well
socket wrench, turning clockwise.
