6. Operating Instructions

The Yato YT-82200 Polisher Machine is designed for machining surfaces made of metal, stone, and wood, and is ideal for tasks such as car polishing, floor waxing, and paint removal.

1. Prepare the Surface: Clean the surface to be polished, waxed, or have paint removed. Ensure it is free from loose dirt and debris.
2. Apply Compound/Wax: Apply a small amount of polishing compound or wax directly to the polishing pad or the surface.
3. Start the Polisher: Hold the polisher firmly with both hands. Place the polishing pad flat against the surface. Turn the power switch to the 'ON' position.
4. Adjust Speed: Use the adjustable speed control to set the desired RPM (2100 - 5000 RPM) based on the task and material. Lower speeds are generally used for spreading compounds, while higher speeds are for finishing.
5. Polish the Surface: Move the polisher in a consistent, overlapping pattern across the surface. The weight of the polisher is designed to allow operation without excessive pressure from the operator, reducing fatigue. The high spindle torque facilitates easy spreading of polishing paste and wax on large surfaces.
6. Finish: Once the desired result is achieved, turn the polisher off and lift it from the surface.

7. Maintenance

Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and optimal performance of your polisher.

• Cleaning: After each use, unplug the tool and clean the exterior with a soft, damp cloth. Remove any residue from the polishing pad and backing plate.
• Brush Inspection: Periodically check the carbon brushes for wear. Replace them if they are worn down to the wear limit.
• Cord Inspection: Regularly inspect the power cord for any signs of damage, cuts, or fraying. Replace damaged cords immediately.
• Storage: Store the polisher in a dry, secure location, out of reach of children. The thickened copper winding is designed for long-lasting work, but proper storage further extends its life.
