4. OPERATION
IMPORTANT WARRANTY INFORMATION:
The battery pack fitted to this cordless tool is considered to be a consumable item and its ability to accept charge will reduce over
time. We will warranty it against mechanical and electrical defect for a period of one year - this does not cover fair wear and tear. If the
battery is not properly charged before first use, or regularly conditioned, its capacity will diminish. Under these circumstances we will
not replace the battery pack even if it is less than one year old.
4.1. BATTERY CHARGING
4.1.1. Plug the charger into a mains electric socket. When switched on, the left hand charger LED will be red.
4.1.2. To release the battery press the battery latch and slide the battery out.
4.1.3. Slide the battery into the charger.
4.1.4. Whilst charging the left hand LED will be green and the right hand LED will be red.
4.1.5. When fully charged the left LED will go off and the right hand LED will be green.
4.1.6. Retthebatteryintothepolisher,ensureitclickshome.
NOTE: When new, the battery may have been shipped in a low charge state. It will take longer to charge the battery initially and
several subsequent charges may also take a little longer, compared with when the battery reaches its optimum performance.
4.2. OPERATION
WARNING! Ensure that you read, understand and apply the safety instructions in Section 1.
WARNING! Do not use the polisher with abrasive or rubbing compounds.
WARNING! Excess pressure can cause damage to paintwork and will put the polisher motor under strain. Polishers returned
withburntoutmotorswillberejectedasawarrantyclaim.Normallytheweightofthepolisherissufcient.
4.2.1. Regularly check that the bonnet is clean and free of abrasive particles and is undamaged and that the pad rotates freely.
4.2.2. Apply a small amount of polish/wax evenly over the surface of the bonnet. DO NOT apply polish directly to the vehicle surface.
4.2.3. Hold the polisher firmly by the handles and place the polishing face onto the panel to be polished.
4.2.4. Start the polisher using the switch built into the underside of the right hand handle. Squeeze and hold the switch ensuring that the pad is
still in contact with the vehicle panel.
4.2.5. Move the polisher with broad sweeping strokes over the surface in a criss-cross pattern. DO NOT apply pressure to the polisher when in
use. Work in logical areas and re-apply the polish/wax at intervals during the polish application process. DO NOT allow the foam pad to
become saturated with polish/wax as this will make polishing more difficult and will reduce pad life.
4.2.6. Polish/wax should be applied to difficult-to-reach areas by hand.
4.2.7. Switch Off the polisher by releasing the ON/OFF switch before lifting it from the panel when polish application is completed.
4.2.8. Remove the application bonnet and replace it with the wool bonnet.
4.2.9. Buff the polish/wax in the same order it was applied. DO NOT put pressure on the polisher but allow its weight and action to do the job.
4.2.10. Badly oxidised paint may require several applications. DO NOT use abrasive compounds.
4.2.11. If the polish/wax is difficult to buff too much has been applied. This may also cause the bonnet to come off the pad.
WARNING! DO NOT immerse the polisher in water.

WARNING! – Risk of Hand Arm Vibration Injury.
This tool may cause Hand Arm Vibration Syndrome if its use is not managed adequately.
This tool is subject to the vibration testing section of the Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC.
This tool is to be operated in accordance with these instructions.
Measured vibration emission value (a): 3.325 m/s²
Uncertainty value (k): 1.5 m/s²
Please note that the application of the tool to a sole specialist task may produce a different average vibration emission. We recommend that a
specific evaluation of the vibration emission is conducted prior to commencing with a specialist task.
A health and safety assessment by the user (or employer) will need to be carried out to determine the suitable duration of use for each tool.
NB: Stated Vibration Emission values are type-test values and are intended to be typical.
Whilst in use, the actual value will vary considerably from and depend on many factors.
Such factors include; the operator, the task and the inserted tool or consumable.
NB: ensure that the length of leader hoses is sufficient to allow unrestricted use, as this also helps to reduce vibration.
The state of maintenance of the tool itself is also an important factor, a poorly maintained tool will also increase the risk of Hand Arm Vibration
Syndrome.
Health surveillance.
We recommend a programme of health surveillance to detect early symptoms of vibration injury so that management procedures can be modified
accordingly.
Personal protective equipment.
We are not aware of any personal protective equipment (PPE) that provides protection against vibration injury that may result from the
uncontrolled use of this tool. We recommend a sufficient supply of clothing (including gloves) to enable the operator to remain warm and dry and
maintain good blood circulation in fingers etc. Please note that the most effective protection is prevention, please refer to the Correct Use and
Maintenance section in these instructions. Guidance relating to the management of hand arm vibration can be found on the HSC website
www.hse.gov.uk - Hand-Arm Vibration at Work.
