Variable Speed Application Guide

Figure 4: Recommended speed settings for various tasks: 1-2 speed for car waxing, 3-4 speed for car polishing, and 5-6 speed for paint removing.
- Speed 1-2 (0-2800 RPM): Ideal for car waxing and light cleaning.
- Speed 3-4 (2900-4500 RPM): Suitable for general car polishing and swirl removal.
- Speed 5-6 (4600-5800 RPM): Best for heavy-duty paint correction and removing deep scratches.
General Usage Steps
- Prepare Surface: Ensure the surface to be polished is clean and dry.
- Apply Product: Apply a small amount of polishing compound or wax directly onto the pad or the surface.
- Start Polisher: Place the pad flat on the surface before turning on the polisher to avoid sling. Start at a low speed and gradually increase as needed.
- Work in Sections: Work on small sections at a time, using overlapping passes. Maintain consistent pressure.
- Orbital Action: The 9MM random orbital action ensures even coverage and minimizes the risk of holograms or swirl marks.
