CLEANING BUFF WHEELS
After use, all Buff Wheels will build up an accumulation of compound and metal particles.
When this occurs, it reduces the overall effectiveness and must be removed.
Use an Eastwood #13120 Buff Rake. To do so:
• Gripping it firmly by the handles,
lightly press it into the rotating
Wheel in “The Work Zone” of the
Wheel in 10 second increments
until the bulk of the material is
removed
(FIG 16)
.
• The Buff Rake will also true up
an out of round wheel. This is
done by first cleaning the wheel
then holding the Rake at the edge
of the Wheel and allowing just
the high spots to contact the Rake. As the “High Spot” fibers are removed, the Wheel
will return to proper roundness.
STORING BUFF MOTOR
• Unplug from power source.
• Wrap cord securely around Buff Motor.
• Store in a clean, dry, dampness free area preferably covered with plastic sheeting.
MAINTENANCE
The following maintenance should be performed before each use:
• Check tightness of all Motor and Wheel mounting hardware.
• Check Motor controls operation.
• Inspect Buff Wheel for tears, damage or premature wear.
