1. Platen Installation

Align the holes under the platen (polishing wheel) with the pins on the face plate.

Place the platen on the base plate with the pins inserted in the platen.

Press down on the platen to produce a secure fit and check that the platen does not wobble.

Position and install the splash ring.

Install the cover to protect the platen and bowl when not in use.

platen surface is clean and free of residue from previous operations. Adhesive residues
may be removed with an approved solvent.
