sand in one area for too long. When the job is
completed, release switch, and gently lift the
tool from the work surface at the same time.
POLISHING: The random orbit sander may
be fitted with a foam buffing pad or polishing
bonnet to polish or remove scratches from
painted or finished surfaces, plastics, and even
glass. The tool is operated in much the same
way as when sanding, but the following points
should be observed;
Apply the compound to the surface, and use
the sponge applicator pad with light pressure
and a circular motion to remove scratches and
restore weathered finishes. Use only as much
compound as necessary, and clean the
sponge frequently during use.
When initial polishing is completed, wipe away
any excess compound with a soft towel, and
then polish the surface to its final finish with the
polishing bonnet. Use smooth overlapping
strokes for best results.
It is important to note that the orbit speed of
the random orbit sander is not the same as the
RPM of a standard right-angle polisher. The
random orbit action is much like a powerful
hand polishing action, and therefore does not
have the high speeds at the edge of the pad
which can burn the work surface. Practice on a
hidden area or test surface until you have
determined the tool is suitable for your
polishing application.
Clean the buffing pad and polishing bonnet
with mild detergents and warm water. DO
NOT use solvents.
