6. Operation
6.1 Using as a polishing machine
When using waxing and polishing agents,
observe the instructions issued by their ma-
nufacturer!
IMPORTANT!
To prevent damage to the surfaces of the work-
pieces you wish to polish, make sure that you
observe the following instructions:
•
Make sure that the polishing attachment is
always mounted precisely in the center of the
sanding/grinding disk.
•
Before you start the equipment, check to
ensure that the attachments are securely ins-
talled.
•
Never touch the area you wish to polish with
the edge of the sanding/grinding disk.
•
Use the speed selector (Fig. 2/Item 4) to
select the following maximum speeds for poli-
shing:
- Working in polish: approx. 1000 rpm
- Polishing to a
high gloss: approx. 1000-1100 rpm
- Polishing up: approx. 1400 rpm
If you do not comply with these instructions, the
manufacturer cannot accept any liability.
The Velcro fastener enables easy changing of the
polishing attachment.
Use the foamed plastic attachment to apply
the polishing agent (Fig. 7).
•
Make sure that the foamed plastic attachment
is free of any foreign bodies.
•
Spread the polishing paste evenly over the
polishing pad. Do not apply the polish directly
to the polishing surface.
•
Switch the polishing machine on and off only
when the polishing machine is resting on the
polishing surface.
•
Place the extension lead over your shoulder
and work first on the large, flat surfaces such
as the bonnet, boot lid and roof.
•
Keep your movements as regular as possible.
•
Important! Allow the polishing machine to
glide over the polishing surface. Do not exert
pressure!
•
Work next on the smaller surfaces (doors, for
example)

of all foreign bodies.

Remove the layer of polish in the same order
as it was applied.

Important! Do not exert pressure on the poli-
shing machine!
Care tips
•
For optimum paintwork protection, you should
polish your car 2 to 3 times a year.
•
Wash your car at least every 2 weeks. Avoid
using household detergents as these can da-
mage the paintwork and remove the layer of
wax.
•
Wash your car with a clean sponge, working
from top to bottom.
•
Remove all insects, bird droppings and tar
stains from the paintwork daily.
•
If you use any window-cleaning agents, spray
them onto a cloth and not directly onto the
windows in order to prevent them wetting the
paintwork.
6.2 Using as a sanding machine
Use the supplied sanding attachments (Fig. 9) for
sanding purposes.
The Velcro fastener enables easy changing of the
sanding attachments.
•
Place the whole surface area of the sanding
disk on the material.
•
Switch on the machine and move it with gent-
le pressure over the workpiece completely
circular movements or moving it to and fro
and up and down.
•
Use a coarse paper for coarse sanding and a
finer paper for finish sanding. You can find the
best paper for the job by means of testing.
