A rating of 120 volts AC/DC means that you tool will operate on standard 60 Hz AC or
DC power. This information is printed on the nameplate. Lower voltage will cause loss of
power and can result in over-heating. All Black & Decker tools are factory-tested; if this
tool does not operate, check the power supply.
Assembly and Adjustment
CAUTION: Turn off and unplug from power supply.
FITTING THE FOAM APPLICATOR OR POLISHING BONNET (FIG. 2)
Place the foam applicator bonnet (E) or polishing bonnet (F) on pad (A) as shown. Make
sure the elastic is tucked down securely and evenly around the underside of the pad.
Before Operation
NOTE: Although this discussion deals with polishing a car, your polisher is capable of
polishing a wide array of flat surfaces such as hardwood floors, furniture, boats and other
surfaces that could use an occasional shine.
Before you begin, make sure the car is clean and dry. The work area should be dry also. If
necessary, remove road tar with a general cleaner before polishing. Also remove excess
grease spots, bug stains, etc.
Using Liquid Wax and Paste Wax
Black and Decker recommends the use of liquid wax with this polisher.
Using Liquid Wax (FIG. 3)
Apply three swirls of liquid wax on the foam applicator bonnet (E).
DO NOT APPLY WAX DIRECTLY TO CAR. This first application should do about 1/4 of
the car. For the second and third applications of wax, use half the quantity stated above.
The bonnet will not absorb as much when reloading.
Using Paste Wax (FIG. 4)
Spread about a heaping teaspoonful of wax evenly over the entire surface
of the foam applicator bonnet (E). Use a putty knife or any flat object.
DO NOT APPLY WAX DIRECTLY TO CAR.
Operation (Figs. 5, 6, 7, 8)
• Fit the foam applicator bonnet (E) on pad (A).
• MAKE SURE THE POLISHER IS IN THE OFF (“0”) POSITION BEFORE PLUGGING
THE POLISHER INTO AN APPROPRIATE POWER OUTLET.
• Apply wax on the foam applicator bonnet (E) as described on “Using Liquid Wax and
Paste Wax” section above.
• To switch your polisher on, press the on/off switch (C) on the side marked “l”. To switch it
off press the on/off switch on the side marked “0”.
• ALWAYS START AND STOP THE POLISHER ON OR AGAINST THE SURFACE.
Place the cord over your shoulder and do flat surfaces first - hood, trunk and roof. Cover
areas quickly with broad, sweeping strokes in a criss-cross pattern (Fig. 5).
• DO NOT press down on the polisher. The machine’s action, not pressure, does the
best job.
• After flat surfaces are covered with wax, do sides of the car. Hold the polisher as in
Figure 6. Let the cord hang free. It is not necessary to use a criss-cross motion on doors
and fenders.
