ATTACHING THE APPLICATION BONNET
See Figure 3, page 10.
WARNING:
To avoid injury, always remove the battery pack from the
polisher before attaching polishing pads.
The buffer/polisher comes with two bonnets, one for applying
the polish to the surface and another for buffing the surface.
The application bonnet is the one made of 100% terry cloth.
To attach the application bonnet to the pad, slip the bonnet
edges completely over the 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.
NOTE: Be careful not to use too much polish at one time. If
the pad becomes saturated, it will not last as long.
APPLICATION OF PASTE POLISH
See Figure 4, page 10.
Use a putty knife or other flat, blunt object to apply approx-
imately 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 10.
Apply a small series of dots around the center of the bonnet.
After the first application, the bonnet will not absorb as much
polish. Apply dots of polish to the bonnet for subsequent
applications, using half of the initial quantity.
WARNING:
To prevent loss of control and possible serious person-
al injury, always operate the tool with both hands. For
increased stability, hold the polisher with both of your
hands on the handle.

APPLY POLISH TO SURFACE
See Figure 6, page 10.
While holding the buffer/polisher firmly against the surface,
turn the buffer on. 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 criss-cross
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 by placing the power switch in the OFF (O) position. Wait
until the pad stops rotating before lifting the buffer/polisher
from the surface. Remove the battery pack from the buffer/
polisher.
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 - 8 , page 10.
WARNING:
Check buffing/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 or scratches to the surface being polished.
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 pulling the bonnet edges over and
off the pad. Replace with buffing 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.
