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.
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.
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.
