line of buffing wheels and polishing compounds.
please refer to our current catalog for more infor-
mation on these. to buff or polish with the buffer:
1. Make sure the power cord is unplugged and
remove the 5 ⁄
8
" hex nuts at the end of each
shaft. Facing the machine, the left-hand shaft
has left-handed threads. the right-hand shaft
has right-handed threads.
2. sandwich a buffing wheel between the two
wheel flanges provided and slide the assem-
bly onto the shaft. use only the wheel flang-
es supplied with this machine. the buffing
assembly should look similar to
figure 4.
figure 4. Buffing wheels mounted.
DO nOt buff on the top of the wheel or
the workpiece may be thrown back at you.
refer to figure 5 before using your buffer.
5. With both hands, firmly grasp the item to
be polished. lightly and evenly move the
workpiece back and forth on the edge of the
buffing wheel in the grayed in area shown in
figure 5. Be careful when polishing plated
metals; there is a chance that the thin plated
material may be damaged. A light pressure is
all that is needed for quality work.
3. tighten the hex nut while holding the shaft
with your other hand. the direction of the
threads and motor rotation ensure that the
nuts on both sides will not self loosen.
4. plug the buffer into the power source. select
the appropriate stick of polishing compound
for your application, turn ON the buffer and
apply the compound to the rotating face of the
wheel. Always wear safety glasses because
particles of polishing compound or buffing
wheel may fly off.
