back-up pad with hook and loop and a 80 grit
sanding disk with hook and loop.

OPERATIONAL GUIDELINES
1) Before operating, make sure the car is clean and dry before polishing/sanding. Remove
any road tar, grease spots, bug stains from the area to be polished/sanded using a
general cleaner.
2) Always start and stop the Polisher/Sander on or against the surface.
3) Do not press down on or force the Polisher/Sander. Its wieght and speed will do the job.
4) This Polisher/Sander can create enough heat through friction to damage or burn through
a car’s finish.
Although heat is necessary to smooth the surface, holding the
Polisher in one spot will damage the paint. Move the Polisher in long, sweeping
strokes along the work surface.

MAINTENANCE
MAINTENANCE
IMPORTANT
: To assure product SAFETY and RELIABILITY, repairs, maintenance and
adjustments should be performed by an authorized service center or other qualified
service technician, always using identical replacement parts.
1. Air vents of the tool should be cleaned regularly to avoid overheating of the motor which
is caused by the blocking of the air vents.
2. DON’T clean this tool with water, as no liquid is allowed in the tool body. Clean the tool
with a dry clean cloth only. Compressed air at low pressure is also suitable.
3. DON’T allow petroleum based products to come into contact with the plastic parts of
the tool, as they contain chemicals that can damage or destroy the plastic parts.
CLEANING WOOL BONNET
The polishing wool bonnet can be hand washed in
warm water and mild detergent. It can be machine
dried at the lowest setting, but it is
recommended to air-dry instead.
CARBON BRUSHES
Remove and check the carbon brushes regularly
(normally after 50 hours of use). The carbon
brushes are installed inside the motor housing.
Using a screwdriver, remove the carbon brush
caps (A) Fig.4 on both sides of the motor housing.
Remove the carbon brush from the motor housing
and inspect it. Repeat this step for the second
carbon brush. Carbon brushes need to be
replaced once they wear down to the small limit
mark as shown in Fig.4. Keep the carbon brushes
clean and free to slip in the holders.
If they have worn down to the limit mark, purchase a set of identical replacement carbon
brushes (both carbon brushes should be replaced at the same time). Install new carbon
brushes and reinstall the carbon brush caps.
If you are unsure about these instructions, we recommend that you get a qualified
service technician to replace the carbon brushes. Contact a King Canada service centre.
