Dear Customer!
The POLIRET is a powerful stainless steel polishing unit with two spindles. The comfortable
housing width enables simultaneous and independent working of both spindles. Continuous
speed control between 800 and 4.500 t./min, perfectly adapting to requirements. The
brushless motors are powerful, maintenance free and extremely durable. The POLIRET
offers economic and precise grinding, polishing, cleaning and brushing of metal and plastic
material. The integrated, silent suction absorbs dust directly at the spindle. The textile filter
bags are washable and reusable. Closing one ventilation flap maximum suction power is
achieved on the other side. Since the exhaust air outlet is located on top of the housing the
device can be placed directly at a wall without losing suction power. Connection to an
external suction is not provided, however it’s available on request.
Prior to installation of the device operating instructions and especially the safety instructions
must be read and followed by all personnel who use this device.
After having unpacked the device, please check carefully whether transportation damages of
any kind have occurred. If that is the case, the carrier or manufacturer must be notified within
3 days. The company will not be responsible for any damages found after that.
These operating instructions must be read and followed by all personnel who use this device.
To ensure quick access we recommend to keep it at a safe place near the device. In case of
loss it can be ordered at a nominal fee from the manufacturer.
