Before operating the polisher, carefully read through and understand all the safety
information and warnings in this user guide. Failure to follow all instructions may result in
electric shock, fire and/or serious personal injury.
Important Information
• Always wear eye protection when using any power tool.
• The operation of a power tool can result in foreign objects being thrown into your
eyes which could be harmful. Before using, always wear safety goggles or safety
glasses. Eye protection with side shields is recommended for maximum protection.
• Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery and always tie back long hair while
operating a power tool
Work Area
• Keep your work area clean and well lit. Cluttered benches and dark areas invite
accidents.
• 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.
• Keep bystanders and children away while operating a power tool. Distractions can
cause you to lose control.
Electrical Safety
• Never remove the grounding prong or modify the plug or tool in any way.
• Do not use any adaptor plugs. Check with a qualified electrician if you are in doubt
as to whether the outlet is properly grounded.
• If the tool should electrically malfunction or break down, grounding provides a low
resistance path to carry electricity away from the user.
• Avoid contact with grounded surfaces such as pipes, radiators, ranges, or
refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is grounded.
• Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool
will increase the risk of electric shock.
• Do not abuse the power cord. Never use the cord to carry the tools or pull the plug
from the outlet. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts.
Replace damaged cords immediately.
• Damaged cords increase the risk of electric shock.
• When operating power tools outside, always use an outdoor extension cord rated
for outdoor use.
• Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Avoid body contact with earthed or
grounded surfaces such as pipes, radiators and refrigerators.There is an increased
risk of electric shock if your body is earthed or grounded.
SAFETY & WARNINGS

Personal Safety
• Stay alert. Watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a
power tool. Do not operate while tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or
medication. A moment of distraction while operating power tools may result in
serious personal injury.
• Avoid accidental starting. Be sure the switch is off before plugging in. Carrying tools
with a finger on the switch or plugging in tools that have the switch on invites
accidents.
• Remove adjusting keys or switches (if applicable) before turning on the tool. A
wrench or key that is attached to a rotating part of the tool may result in personal
injury.
• Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. Proper footing and
balance enable better control of the tool in unexpected situations.
• Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection. Dust mask, non-skid safety
shoes, hat or hearing protection must be used for appropriate conditions.
To o l U s e a n d C a r e
• Do not force tool. Use the correct tool for your application. The correct tool will do
the job better and safer at the rate for which it was designed.
• Do not use tool if switch does not turn on or off. Any tool that cannot be controlled
with a switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
• Disconnect the plug from the power source before making any adjustments,
changing accessories or storing the tool. Such preventive safety measures reduce
the risk of starting the tool accidentally.
• Store idle tools out of reach of children and other untrained persons. Tools are
dangerous in the hands of untrained persons.
• Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and any
condition that may affect the tools operation. If damaged, cease use immediately
and contact Kogan.com for support.
• Use only accessories that are intended for this tool. Accessories that may be
suitable for one tool, may become hazardous when used on another tool.

Before first use:
It is very important that the vehicle be clean and dry before applying any wax or polish. Wax
protection will wear longer and protect better if applied directly to the paint.
Wash the car to remove all dirt and oil using a car wash which had specially formulated to
clean the vehicle’s finish. Pay special attention to areas that capture excessive layers of dirt -
around wheel wells and next to the bumpers.
Washing the vehicle:
Before you begin remove anything that may accidentally scratch the vehicle such as a belt
or jewellery.
1. Pre-wash: Rinse the vehicle down thoroughly, making sure all loose dirt and debris
has been removed prior to washing.
2. Wash: Using a soft brush or microfiber wash mitt, begin washing the vehicle at the
top and work down. Dip the brush or mitt into a soap bucket to rinse away any
trapped dirt and to apply more soap.
3. Rinsing: Starting with the roof of the vehicle rinse thoroughly with clean water
directly from the hose. After the first rinsing go back and make sure all soap
residues have been rinsed away.
4. Drying: Use a microfiber towel or synthetic drying towel such as PVA to wipe the
vehicle dry starting at the top and working down.
Using the polisher:
Before using the polisher, ensure you read and understand the directions suppled with your
chosen car care product (polishes, waxes, cleaners etc.).
• Evenly apply the appropriate amount of car care product directly to the polishing
pad/bonnet.
Note: If you apply the polish to the pad in thin rings, the polish with leave thin
“polished” rings over the surface of the paint, while other areas will remain
unpolished.
• Grasp the polisher firmly with both hands and position the polisher with the pad
against the surface of the vehicle. Place the power switch in the on position.
Note: Always start the polisher on or against the surface of the vehicle. This will
help prevent slinging wax onto unwanted areas of the vehicle such as glass and
wheels.
• Move the polisher back and forth in a sweeping motion. Do not apply too much
pressure, allow the polisher to work under its own weight.
• Remove any product residue with a soft cotton cloth.
OPERATION

Handling:
• The polisher is specially designed to offer ease of use on all areas of the vehicle.
• Use the side handle & front handle for bonnet, trunk or side panel areas.
• Use the rear handle for roof panels or areas where extra reach is needed.
Cord management:
• To a v o i d e n t a n g l e m e n t , p l a c e power cord over your shoulder during operation.
• Position the power cord so that it will not get caught on tools, parts of the vehicle or
pose a tripping hazard during operation.
WARNING: Inspect the condition of the power cord before each use. If
it shows any sign of damage, cease use immediately and contact
Kogan.com for support. Never use a power tool with a damaged cord
as this could lead to electrical shock, resulting in injury or death.
