INSTALLING/REMOVING APPLICATION

BONNET

See Figure 3, page 9.

The reusable application bonnet is made of 100% terry cloth

and is used to apply polish to the painted surface.

 To install: Place the power switch in the OFF ( O ) posi-

tion.

 Remove battery pack from the tool.

Slip application bonnet edges over the top of the foam

pad.

Carefully tighten the drawstring around the pad and secure

it with a double-tied bow knot.

Tuck the knot and the drawstring completely inside the

bonnet.

WARNING:

The drawstring must be tucked securely inside the bon-

net before turning the buffer/polisher on. Failure to do

so could result in the drawstring being caught between

the motor housing and orbiting pad, increasing the risk

of serious personal injury.

To remove: Untie bonnet strings and pull bonnet edges

over and off pad.

APPLYING POLISH TO THE APPLICATION

BONNET

Most polishes are either in paste or liquid form. Before using

any polish, read all directions on appropriate applications

and proper use.

OPERATION

WARNING:

To prevent loss of control and possible serious personal

injury, always operate the tool with both hands, keeping

one hand on the handle.

APPLY POLISH TO SURFACE

See Figure 6, page 9.

While holding the buffer/polisher firmly against the surface,

slide the ON/OFF switch to the ON position (to the left).

Always start and stop the polisher on or against the surface

being polished.

Begin by polishing larger flat surfaces, such as the hood,

trunk and roof. Use a broad sweeping motion in a crisscross

pattern. Do not press down on the surface with the polisher.

Let the orbital action of the pad and bonnet do the work.

Once flat surfaces have been covered, polish curved surfaces

such as car doors and quarter panels. Use small circular

motions.

After applying polish to the entire surface, turn buffer/polisher

off. Wait until the pad stops rotating before lifting the buffer/

polisher from the surface.

For hard to reach areas, such as the underside of bumpers

or side mirrors, apply polish by hand.

CHANGE TO BUFFING/POLISHING BONNET

See Figure 7, page 9.

WARNING:

Check polishing bonnets before each use. Make sure

they are clean and free from any loose particles or foreign

objects that may be embedded in the bonnet. Failure to

do so could cause these particles or objects to be thrown

from the tool, resulting in possible serious injury.

The reusable buffing/polishing bonnet is made of synthetic

tufted material and is used to buff and polish painted surfaces.

Remove the battery pack from the buffer/polisher and remove

the application bonnet by loosening the drawstring and slip-

ping the bonnet off the pad. Replace with buffing/polishing

bonnet, attaching it the same way as the application bonnet.

Buff the surface in the same order as it was polished, starting

with large flat surfaces and ending with hard-to reach areas.

Use the same motion as for polishing, a broad sweeping criss-

cross pattern on large flat areas and small circular motions

on all other areas. Remember to let the tool do the work.

APPLICATION OF PASTE POLISH

See Figure 4, page 9.

Use a putty knife or other flat, blunt object to apply ap-

proximately one rounded teaspoon of paste onto the bonnet.

Evenly spread the paste over the entire surface of the bonnet.

Do not apply paste directly to the surface being polished.

APPLICATION OF LIQUID POLISH

See Figure 5, page 9.

Apply a small circle of liquid (about the size of a half- dollar)

around the center of the bonnet, followed by two more rings,

each slightly larger than the previous one. After the first

application, the bonnet will not absorb as much polish. Apply

two rings of polish to the bonnet for subsequent applications,

using half of the initial quantity.
