Washer Modification (Optional) 

Should increased defect removal be desired, spacing backing plate away from 

rubber shroud will induce faster pad rotation. Remove backing plate and insert 

supplied washer in between backing plate hub and tool output shaft. Ensure 

backing plate hub is aligned with output shaft. Then follow backing plate 

installation instructions.

Installing BOSS Buffing Pad And Usage Recommendations

a)  Inspect pad (micro fiber or foam) prior to installation.

b) 

CAUTION

: DO NOT use torn or worn out pads.

c)  Unplug power tool prior to buffing pad installation.

d) Center pad on backing plate and press firmly around pad.

e)  Never run machine when pad is not resting on the vehicle’s surface.

f)   Frequent cleaning of buffing pad is essential to reduce product build up, which 

can potentially lead to excessive pad weight and a subsequent increase in 

vibration.

Pad Maintenance

a) Remove pad from machine and pre-rinse with warm water after each use.

b) Spray Griot’s Garage Micro Fiber and Foam Pad Cleaner on the entire pad face.  

c)  Gently knead the pad until you create a rich lather. This cleaning action frees the 

pad of any compound or wax residue.

d) Rinse thoroughly with warm water and wring out, or machine wash.  

e)  Allow pad to dry completely before use. Store dry pad in the supplied  

BOSS packaging.
