SPRAY BUFFING

Use 3/4” to 1” thick HOG HAIR high speed burnishing pad. The spray buff solution should be 
applied to the floor ahead of the machine. Do not run the machine into the spray or mist of the 
spray buff solution.

DAMP BUFFING

Use 3/4” to 1” thick BEIGE high speed burnishing pad. Use a well-wrung out mop to apply damp
buffing solution. Go over dampened surface with machine until surface is dry and has a high 
glaze.

STORING

Store with pad off the floor by tilting machine back on the support wheels.

BELT MAINTENANCE

(WARNING: REMOVE LP TANK BEFORE TURNING OVER THE MACHINE)

To change a broken or worn belt, turn the machine on its side and remove the pad and pad driver. 
Using a wrench, loosen the hex bolt for the pulley tensioner. Once the tensioner is loose, the belt 
can be easily removed. Slip the old belt off the pulleys and reattach the new belt. Attach the 
pulley tensioner back into position and retighten its bolt. The tensioner should provide the belt 
with a 0.16 inch belt deflection when a force of 2 pounds is applied against outside of belt. Turn 
machine upright immediately after service is completed.
