Polishing tips
Ensure that the area to be polished is clean and dry
Choose only polishing compounds that are compatible with the material to be polished,
and with the method of application. Read and understand all information supplied with
your polishing compound before use
If using polishing sponges, apply polishing compound evenly to the polishing sponge and
place the sponge against the work surface
Hold the machine securely, using both hands, by the handles provided. The polishing
sponge should make only light contact with the work surface
Switch on the machine, and work across the surface using a wide 'sweeping' motion. Stop
and apply extra compound as required
When the entire surface has been covered, stop the machine and allow the compound to
dry (follow manufacturer’s guidance)
Attach a clean polishing bonnet to the machine and work across the surface as before,
until all visible polishing compound is removed
8.5
Sanding tips
This machine is primarily designed as a polishing tool. It is suitable for light
duty sanding tasks, e.g. fine sanding as a preparation to polishing, but it
has not been designed to remove large amounts of material. Use a different
type of sander, e.g. a belt sander, should this be required.
