safety Instruction

WARNING! Read all safety warnings and all.

instructions. Failure to follow the warnings and instructions may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.

(Save all warnings and instructions for future reference).

The term “power tool” in the warnings refers to your mains-operated (corded) power tool or battery-operated (cordless) power tool.

Work area safety

1. Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.
2. Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.
3. Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control.

Electrical safety

1. Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs with earthed (grounded) power tools.
   Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will reduce risk of electric shock.

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

3. Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric shock.

4. Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging the power tool. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of electric shock.

5.  When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock.

Personal safety

1. Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a power tool. Do not use a power tool while you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in serious personal injury.
2. Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye protection. Protective equipment such as dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries.
3. Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in the off-position before connecting to power source and/or battery pack, picking up or carrying the tool. Carrying power tools with your finger on the switch or energising power tools that have the switch on invites accidents.
4.  Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the power tool on. A wrench or a key left attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result in personal injury.
5. Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This enables better control of the power tool in unexpected situations.
6.  Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair can be caught in moving parts.
7. If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and collection facilities, ensure these are connected and properly used. Use of these devices can reduce dust-related hazards.

Power tool use and care

1.  Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool for your application. The correct power tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was designed.
2. Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it on and off. Any power tool that cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must bere paired.
3. Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or the battery pack from the power tool before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing power tools. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the power tool accidentally.
4. Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and do not allow persons unfamiliar with the power tool or these instructions to operate the power tool.Power tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained  users.
5.  Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and any other condition that may affect the power tools operation. If damaged, have the power tool repaired before use. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained power tools
6. Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control.
7.  Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc.

in accordance with these instructions and in the manner intended for the particular type of power tool, taking into account the working conditions and the work to be performed. Use of the power tool for operations different from those intended could result in a hazardous situation.

Service

1.  Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair person using only identical replacement parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.

Additional safety instructions for your carpolisher

1. Check that speed marked on the wheel is equal to or greater than the rated speed of the polisher.
2. Inspect the sponge pad before use. Do not use chipped, cracked or otherwise defective products.
3. Ensure that the bonnets are fitted in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions.
4. Ensure that the bonnet is correctly mounted and tightened before use and run the tool at no-load for  30 seconds in a safe position. Stop immediately if there is considerable vibration or if other defects are detected. If this condition occurs, check the machine to determine the cause.
5.  Ensure that sparks resulting from use do not create a hazard e.g. do not hit persons, or ignite flammable substances.
6. When cleaning, personal protective equipment such as gloves and apron should be worn.
7. The wheel continues to rotate after a short period of time. And it will stop soon.
8. Do not use the polisher as a fixed tool.

OPERATINGINSTRUCTIONS

NOTE: Before using the tool, read the instruction book carefully.

1. Place terry-cloth bonnet (see Fig.A)
   Place terry-cloth bonnet securely over sponge pad.

2. Spread the polish (see Fig.B)
   Spread about a tablespoonful of polish evenly over the entire surface of the pad cover. Do not apply polish directly to car. This first application should do about 1/3 of an average size car. For the second and third applications of polish, repeat as above. The pad cover will not adsorb as much when reloading.

3. Switch (see Fig.C)
   Always start and stop the polisher on against the car  surface. Push the switch to on position to start the polisher, off position to stop the polisher.

4. To use the carpolisher(see Fig.D)
   Hold extension lead over shoulder and do flat surfaces first ie: bonnet boot and roof. Cover areas quickly with broad sweeping strokes in a crisscross pattern. Do not press down on polisher. The machine’s action, not pressure, does the best job.

5. Work next on smaller surfaces (doors etc.) (See Fig.E)
   Always keep the mains lead over the shoulder or let it hang to the ground when working on a vertical surface marking sure it is well clear of the moving polishing head. For less accessible surfaces (such as wing mirrors, door handles) remove the polishing bonnet and polish these areas by hand.

6. Final work (See Fig.F)
   Finally remove the terry-cloth bonnet and fit the applicator bonnet onto the polisher (see Fig.A). Use long, sweeping strokes in a criss-cross pattern to bring out the shine. Do not press hard. Let the polisher do the work polishing.

Working hints for your polisher

1. At all times, let the polisher do the work-do not force it or apply excessive pressure to the polisher. Preferably, use a light circular motion. Pressing too hard will slow down the machine’s movement and affect the quality of the work.
2. The most common error, however, is applying too much wax. If pad absorbs too much wax, it will not last as long, and polishing is more difficult and takes longer.
3. If bonnet continually comes off pad, please try with a new bonnet.
4.  If wax seems difficult to buff, you may have used too much wax.

Maintenance

WARNING: Remove the plug from the socket before carrying out any adjustment, servicing or maintenance.

Your power tool requires no additional lubrication or maintenance.

There are no user serviceable parts in your power tool. Never use water or chemical cleaners to clean your power tool. Wipe clean with a dry cloth. Always store your power tool in a dry place. Keep the motor ventilation slots clean. Keep all working controls free of dust. Occasionally you may see sparks through the ventilation slots. This is normal and will not damage your power tool.

If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent or similarly qualified persons in order to avoid a hazard.

TROUBLESHOOTING

1. If your power tool does not start, check the plug on the power supply first.
2. If the polisher does not abrade surface, chec the bonnet. If the bonnet have been worn, replace the new bonnet and try again.
3.  If a fault can not be rectified, return the tool to an qualified person for repair.
