you are tired.
17. Check Damaged Parts - Before further use of the auto polisher, a guard or other part that is
damaged should be carefully checked to determine that it will operate properly and perform its
intended function. Check for alignment of moving parts, binding of moving parts, breakage of
parts, mounting, and any other conditions that may affect its operation. A guard or other part that
is damaged should be properly repaired or replaced by an authorized service center unless
otherwise indicated elsewhere in this instruction manual.
Have defective switches replaced by authorized service center.
Do not use auto polisher if switch does not turn it on and off.
Do not put fingers or any objects between the skirt and buffer pad while polisher is on.
Do not allow the auto polisher to operate without it being held to or against a stationary surface.
The freewheeling buffer pad can throw off the pad cover.
18. Double insulated tools are equipped with a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). 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 change
the plug in any way.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE OF YOUR POLISHER
1. Pad cover can be machine-washed in cold water with a small amount of detergent on a few
minute cycle; then machine-dried at medium heat. However, hand washing and air drying is
recommended for longer pad cover life.
2. To prolong pad life and shape, store polisher with pad face up.
3. Remove pad cover from pad when polisher is not in use so that pad can dry out and retain its
original shape.
4. Grip the polisher firmly but without downward pressure. Pressing too hard will slow down the
machine’s movement and affect the quality of the work.
