Variable Speed Trigger Switch (Fig. A)
These tools are equipped with a variable speed trigger
switch that permits speed control from 0 to 9000 RPM.
To turn the tool on, squeeze the variable speed trigger

shown in Figure A until the tool starts to run. The
farther you depress the trigger, the faster it will operate.
Releasing the trigger turns the tool off.
Use lowest speed for buffing/polishing and highest speed
for sanding.
The variable speed trigger switch has a no-volt release
function. In the event of a dead battery or other unexpected
shut down, the trigger switch needs to be cycled (depress
the trigger switch, release, then depress again) to restart
the tool.
Speed Control Switch (Fig. A)
The three-speed feature of your tool allows you to change
speed for greater versatility.
•
To select Speed 1 slide the speed control switch
the way to the left.
•
To select Speed 2 slide the speed control switch to the
middle position.
•
To select Speed 3 slide the speed control switch all the
way to the right.
nOTE: Do not change speed when the tool is running.
Always allow the tool to come to a complete stop before
changing speed. If you have trouble changing speed,
depress and release the trigger switch and try again.

as you load the tool by pressing down. It's this feature,
coupled with the variable speed trigger switch, that make
this tool such a value.
The electronic speed control feature comes into play
whenever the trigger switch is fully depressed and the tool
is running at the selected speed determined by the setting
of the control wheel. As you load the tool by pushing it
down on the work surface, (with the trigger fully depressed)
the electronic circuit inside the tool will compensate for
the loading and maintain the selected speed. If the speed
selected by the speed control switch is 3000 RPM, as in
the example above, the tool will maintain 3000 RPM, as it
is loaded.
It is important to remember two things about electronic
speed control:
1. The electronic speed control operates only when the
variable speed trigger switch
2. The effect of electronic speed control is much easier to
observe at lower speed settings (1400 RPM and below),
than at high speeds. As the tool approaches 2000 RPM,
the effect is considerably less dramatic.
Keep in mind that, with a conventional polisher running at
a typical no-load speed of 3000 RPM, the tool slows down
to about 3000 RPM under a polishing load. Your polisher
will continue to run at 3000 RPM (or any speed you select
with the speed control switch) as a load is applied. Since it
doesn't slow down, the speed may be greater than you're
used to, so some extra caution should be observed until you
get the "feel" of your polisher. If you feel the speed is too
great, you can, of course, slow the speed down with either
the trigger switch or the control switch.
Polishing (Fig. E)
These instructions and suggestions are intended to
familiarize new operators in overall general operation of
power polishing. You will develop your own techniques
which will make the job easier and faster as you learn
power polishing.
•
You should use utmost care when power polishing
around or over sharp objects and contours of the car
body. It is very important to use the correct pressure
while polishing various sections of an automobile body.
For example, light pressure should be applied when
polishing over sharp edges of body panels, or over
edges of the rain gutter along the top.
•
Since everyone does not use the same type of power
polish, we recommend you clean and polish a test
section on a flat area of the car first. From this test
section, you can judge the strength or cleaning action of
your power polish.
•
Remember, all power polish is not the same. Different
brands will react differently on various painted surfaces.
Also, you are now using a rotary polisher with power
polish which is entirely different from any hand
application which you may have done before. Wash
the car before power polishing it. Washing will remove
loose dirt, scum, road salt, etc. which could act as an
abrasive and damage paint. Loose dirt, etc. will also
is fully depressed.
