POLISHING
See Figure 7.
FOR BEST RESULTS, ALWAYS OPERATE AT LOW
SPEED WHEN POLISHING.
Hold the tool firmly, allowing it to operate freely with
out unnecessary pressure. This tool was designed so
that the weight of the tool alone will provide adequate
pressure for polishing at top efficiency.
BONNETS
MUST
BE KEPT CLEAN AND FREE
FROM
GRIT, DIRT, AND OTHER ABRASIVE PARTICLES.
When bonnets become dirty and clogged with pol
ishing film, wash in lukewarm water with a mild de
tergent, Allow bonnets to dry throughly before reuse.
Polish with a long sweeping motion, back and forth,
advancing along the surface to be polished. Do not
hold the tool in one spot or use a circular or spiral pat
tern, This will cause swirls in the finish. Spread a light
coat of polish or wax over a small area. Polish with
the tool according to the manufacturer's instructions
printed on the label of the polish or wax container.
Note: Some polishes should be buffed while damp
where others must be allowed to dry; therefore always
check the manufacturer's label.
Tilt the tool so that the polishing bonnet is at a slight
angle to the work surface. Always start polishing at
the top or highest point and work down. This will pre
vent light dust or polish film from being thrown upon
completed section. It also eliminates pulling the tool's

Surfaces that have an old film of wax or polish, or that
have not been polished or waxed for an extended pe
riod of time, may require a second application. This is
especially true on oxidized surfaces. Heavily oxidized
surfaces should be cleaned with a commercial paste or
liquid cleaner before polishing or waxing,
A 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.
