SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING!
Read all warnings, safety instructions, and other instructions. Failure to follow all the instructions and safety instructions can result in the risk of electric shock, fire, and/or serious personal injury.
Save these instructions and safety instructions for future reference.

WORK AREA

  • Keep the work area clean and well-lit.
    Dark and cluttered work areas increase the risk of accidents and injuries.

  • Do not use power tools in explosive environments, such as in the vicinity of flammable liquids, gas or dust.
    Power tools produce sparks that can ignite dust and fumes.

  • Keep children and onlookers at a safe distance when using power tools.
    You can lose control of the tool if you are distracted.

ELECTRICAL SAFETY

  • The plug on the power tool must match the powerpoint. Never modify the plug in any way. Never use an adapter with earthed power tools. Unmodified plugs and matching outlets reduce the risk of electric shock.

  • Avoid body contact with earthed surfaces such as pipes, radiators, cookers, and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is earthed.

  • Do not expose power tools to rain or moisture. There is a greater risk of electric shock if water gets into a power tool.

  • Be careful with the power cord. Never use the power cord to carry or pull the tool, or to pull out the plug from the powerpoint.
    Keep the power cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges, and moving parts. Damaged or tangled power cords increase the risk of electric shock.

  • If using the tool outdoors, only use an extension cord approved for outdoor use. Cords intended for outdoor use reduce the risk of electric shock.

  • If it is absolutely necessary to use power tools in damp conditions, use a mains connection protected by a residual current device (RDC). Using an RCD reduces the risk of electric shock.

PERSONAL SAFETY

  • Stay alert. Pay attention to what you are doing, and use your common sense when working with power tools. Never use power tools if you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication.
    A moment of inattention when using a power tool can result in serious personal injury.

  • Use personal safety equipment.
    Depending on the type of tool and how it is used, safety equipment such as dust masks, non-slip safety shoes, safety helmets, and ear protection reduce the risk of personal injury.

  • Avoid accidental starting. Make sure the power switch is in the OFF position before inserting the battery or lifting/carrying the tool. Carrying a power tool with your finger on the switch, or connecting a tool to the mains when the switch is in the ON position, increases the risk of accidents and injuries.

  • Remove adjuster keys/spanners before switching on the power tool. Spanners or the like that are left in a rotating part of the tool can cause personal injury.

  • Do not overreach. Always maintain a firm footing and good balance. This ensures better control over the power tool in unexpected situations.

  • Wear suitable clothing. Do not wear loose-fitting clothing or jewelry.
    Keep your hair, clothing, and gloves away from moving parts. Loose-fitting clothing, jewelry and long hair can get caught in moving parts.

  • If dust extraction and dust collection equipment are available, this should be connected and used correctly. The use of such equipment can reduce the risk of dust-related problems.

  • Do not allow the fact that you are used to working with similar tools cause you to become over-confident and disregard the safety instructions for the tool.
    A moment of inattention or carelessness can result in serious personal injury.

USING AND LOOKING AFTER POWER TOOLS

  • Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool for the planned work.
    The tool does the job better and is safer when used at the rate for which it was designed.

  • Do not use the tool if it cannot be switched on and off with the power switch. Power tools that cannot be controlled with the power switch are dangerous and must be repaired.

  • Pull out the plug and/or remove the battery before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or putting the power tool away. These safety precautions reduce the risk of accidentally starting the power tool.

  • Store power tools out of the reach of children when not in use. Never allow children or anyone who is unfamiliar with the power tool and these instructions, to use the tool. Power tools are dangerous if used by inexperienced persons.

  • Keep the power tool properly maintained.
    Check that moving parts are properly adjusted and do not jam and that no parts are incorrectly fitted or damaged.
    Check for other factors that could affect functionality. If the power tool is damaged, it must be repaired before being used again. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained power tools.
    • Keep cutting tools sharp and clean.
    Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to jam and are easier to control.
    • Use the power tool, accessories, bits, etc., in accordance with these instructions, taking into account the actual working conditions and the work that is to be done. It can be dangerous to use power tools for purposes other than those for which they are intended to be used.
    • Keep handles and grips clean, dry, and free from oil and grease. Greasy handles and grips make it difficult to hold the tool.

SERVICE

  • The power tool must only be serviced by qualified personnel using identical spare parts. This will ensure that the power tool remains safe to use.
  • Never attempt to repair damaged batteries. Batteries must only be serviced by an authorized service center or other qualified personnel. (For battery operation only).

USING AND MAINTAINING BATTERY-POWERED TOOLS

  • Charge the batteries only with the charger recommended by the manufacturer. The use of another charger can result in the risk of personal injury and fire.

  • Only use batteries intended for the power tool. The use of other batteries can result in the risk of personal injury and fire.

  • Do not allow batteries to come into contact with paper clips, coins, keys, nails, screws, and other small metal objects that can result in short-circuiting. Short-circuiting the battery terminals can result in the risk of burn injuries or fire.

  • Incorrect use can cause liquid to leak from the battery. Avoid touching this.
    Rinse with water after unintentional contact. Seek medical attention if you get battery fluid in your eyes. Leaking battery fluid can cause skin irritation or burn injuries.

  • Do not use damaged or modified batteries or products. Damaged or modified batteries can behave unexpectedly, which can result in fire, explosion, and/or personal injury.

  • Do not expose the battery or product to naked flames or heat. Batteries can explode at temperatures over 130°C.

  • Follow the instructions for the battery and charger. Only charge the battery within the specified temperature range. Incorrect charging can damage the battery and cause a fire.

POLISHING AND WAXING

NOTE:

  • Make sure the surface to be polished is clean and dry.
  • Do not polish in direct sunlight.
  • Do not polish in low temperatures or high humidity, this can produce a mottled result.
  • Do not polish outdoors if it is windy; sand and other particles in the air can adhere to the paintwork and have an abrasive effect when polishing.
  • Mask edges if necessary to plastic and rubber parts that you do not want to come in contact with the polish.
  • Always switch off the machine before lifting it up from the surface being polished.
  • Do not press the machine, allow the inherent weight of the machine to do the job.
  • Note that sharp edges are worked more quickly and that the paintwork on these surfaces can be thinner.
  • Clean the bonnets at regular intervals and/or replace them during the polishing. Expect to need 2-4 bonnets per car.
    1. Apply five drops of polish the size of peas on the bonnet. Do not use too much polish, it does not do any good and will fasten in the bonnet and produce an inferior result.
    2. Place the bonnet on the surface to be polished and start the machine at low speed.
    3. Spread the polish over a small area (about 30 x 30 cm).
    4. Increase the speed and move the polisher slowly (about 4 cm/sec) backward and forwards over the surface a few times.
    – Apply a few drops of polish on the bonnet when it begins to be used up. Note that a new or newly washed bonnet sucks up more in the beginning. Remember to ALWAYS switch off the machine before lifting it up from the surface.
    5. Use a microfibre cloth to wipe off the polish and produce a bright surface. Check the results and continue on a new small area (about 30 x 30 cm).
    6. When the whole car has been polished the paintwork should be protected with wax. Apply a thin layer by hand, or with a clean and soft polishing wheel. Wait a few minutes and then wipe with a clean microfibre cloth. One tip is to remove residual polish with isopropanol or another deep-cleaning agent adapted for paintwork before applying the wax.
    7. Clean the bonnets and microfibre cloths and store the equipment in a dry, dustless place.
