6 Working with the device:
Caution:
For your own safety, wear protective goggles and hear-
ing protection when you work with the device!
Caution:
While working, ensure that the workpiece is held
securely! Flying workpiece parts pose a hazard!
Caution:
Never press the lock button for spindle locking when the
device is switched on. This could cause mechanical
damage!
Workpiece cleaning:
Naturally enough, it is essential that a dirty workpiece
be cleaned thoroughly prior to polishing! Use of sand-
paper is helpful here. Appropriate sanding sheets with
a touch fastener layer are available in our range
(www.proxxon.com).
Polishing:
Warning:
Please ensure that the polishing tool is in a perfect con-
dition and not worn or damaged. Parts can break off and
fly about if polishing tools are worn or damaged. This
could result in injuries.
Please note:
Never work without polishing agent! Please note that the
ingredients of different polishing agents play a decisive
part in achieving the polishing effect, not the mechani-
cal action of the polishing tool!
Therefore, the choice of polishing agent, whether emul-
sion, wax or paste, is decisive if the desired result is to
be achieved. Please ensure that the correct agent is
selected for the material to be polished and the respec-
tive working stage.
A tube (75 ml) of metal polishing paste is included in the
WP/E angle polisher scope of delivery. A replacement
can be obtained from retailers, and these also stock fur-
ther polishing agents of all types.
Application of the polishing agent is most expedient with
the enclosed blue polishing sponge. This procedure
should be realised at as low a speed as possible to avoid
the polishing agent splashing about.
Following application of the polishing agent to the sur-
face to be polished, the polishing process can be con-
tinued as required with the polishing felt disc and pol-
ishing hood.
The complete procedure should, depending on require-
ments, be repeated until the desired result is achieved.
Finally, the workpiece should be cleaned of residual pol-
ishing agent using the microfibre cloth.
7 Accessories for the WP/E angle polisher
Naturally enough, all the items described above (except
metal polishing paste) are also available as accessories
from Proxxon.
8 Care and maintenance:
The device is broadly maintenance-free. For a long ser-
vice life, you should clean your unit after every use with
a soft cloth or brush.
The exterior of the housing can be cleaned with a soft,
possibly damp cloth. A mild soap or other suitable clean-
ing agent may be used during this. Solvents or cleaning
agents containing alcohol (e.g. petrol, cleaning alcohols
etc.) should be avoided, since these can attack plastic
casings. In any event, make absolutely certain that no
liquids penetrate into the interior of the device.
