GENERAL SAFETY WARNINGS AND INSTRUCTIONS FOR ALL TOOLS
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING: Read all instructions before operating product. Failure to follow all instructions listed
below may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.
• AVOID DANGEROUS ENVIRONMENTS: Don’t use tools in damp or wet locations. Don’t use
tools in the rain.
•
KEEP CHILDREN AWAY. All visitors should be kept at a distance from work area.
•
STORE IDLE TOOLS INDOORS. When not in use, tools should be stored indoors in dry, and
high or locked-up place – out of reach of children.
•
DON’T FORCE TOOL. It will do the job better and with less likelihood of a risk of injury at
the rate for which it was designed.
•
USE RIGHT TOOL. Do not use the tool for any job except that for which it is intended.
•
DRESS PROPERLY. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. They can be caught in moving
parts. Rubber gloves and substantial, non-skid footwear are recommended when working
outdoors. Wear protective hair covering to contain long hair.
•
USE SAFETY GLASSES AND OTHER SAFETY EQUIPMENT. Use safety goggles or safety glasses
with side
shields, complying with applicable safety standards and, when needed, a face
shield. Also use face or dust mask if operation is dusty. This applies to all persons in the
work area. Also use a hard hat, hearing protection, gloves, safety shoes and dust collection
systems when specified or required. Safety glasses or the like are available at extra cost at
your local dealer or Black & Decker Service Center.
•
DON’T ABUSE CORD. Never carry tool by cord or yank it to disconnect from receptacle. Keep cord
from heat, oil, and sharp edges.
• SECURE WORK. Use clamps or a vise to hold work. It’s safer than using your hand and it frees both
hands to operate tool.
•
DON’T OVERREACH. Keep proper footing and balance at all times.
•
DISCONNECT TOOLS. Disconnect the tool from the power supply when not in use, before
servicing, and when changing accessories such as bonnets and the like.
•
AVOID UNINTENTIONAL STARTING. Don’t carry plugged-in tool with finger on switch. Be sure
switch is off when plugging in.
•
GROUND FAULT CIRCUIT INTERRUPTER (GFCI) protection should be provided on the circuits
or outlets to be used. Receptacles are available having built in GFCI protection and may
be used for this measure of
safety.
•
USE OF ACCESSORIES AND ATTACHMENTS. The use of any accessory or attachment not
recommended for use with this tool could be hazardous. Refer to the accessory section
of this manual for further details.
•
STAY ALERT. Watch what you are doing. Use common sense. Do not operate tool when you
are tired.
•
CHECK DAMAGED PARTS. Before further use of the tool, a guard or other part that is
damaged should be carefully checked to determine that it will operate properly and perform
its intended function. Check for alignment of moving parts, binding of moving parts,
breakage of parts, mounting, and any other conditions that may affect its operation. A
guard or other part that is damaged should be properly repaired or replaced by an
authorized service center unless otherwise indicated elsewhere in this instruction manual.
Have defective switches replaced by authorized service center. Do not use tool if switch
does not turn it ON and OFF.
•
DO NOT OPERATE portable electric tools near flammable liquids or in gaseous or explosive
atmospheres. Motors in these tools normally spark, and the sparks might ignite fumes.
•
OUTDOOR USE EXTENSION CORDS. When tool is used outdoors, use only extension cords
intended for use outdoors and so marked.
•
EXTENSION CORDS. Make sure your extension cord is in good condition. When using an
extension cord, be sure to use one heavy enough to carry the current your product will
draw. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and
overheating. The accompanying table shows the correct size to use depending on cord
length and nameplate ampere rating. If in doubt, use the next heavier gage. The smaller
the gage number, the heavier the cord.

Controls and Features
GENERAL USAGE GUIDE
It is very important that your car be clean and dry before applying wax. Any wax protection will wear
longer and protect better if applied directly to the paint.
A good quality liquid wax is recommended because of its ease of application, but a paste wax will also
work with a little more effort. Hard paste wax, however, should be applied by hand, then removed
using this unit.
Always use the bonnet recommended for each step (directions follow) to achieve the best results.
Any areas inaccessible to the waxer/polisher should be waxed and finished by hand.
CAUTION: TO AVOID THE RISK OF PERSONAL INJURY OR PROPERTY DAMAGE:
• MAKE SURE THE POLISHER IS IN THE OFF POSITION BEFORE PLUGGING THE
POLISHER INTO AN APPROPRIATE POWER OUTLET.
• Place the power cord over your shoulder to avoid contact with the polisher head or the
surface while the unit is running.
• Always start and stop waxer/polisher on or against the work surface. If you turn the
waxer/polisher ON without the applicator bonnet touching your work surface, the bonnet
may fly loose and cause injury or property damage. Make sure the waxer/polisher
with
bonnet securely attached is lightly resting on the surface you intend to polish at all times
when the Power Switch is in the ON position.
• Use only manufacturer-supplied bonnets with this unit.
STEP 1: SURFACE PREPARATION
• Wash your car or surface thoroughly to remove all dirt and oil. Pay special attention to
areas that attract excessive layers of dirt such as, areas around wheel wells and next to
bumpers.
• After washing, move the car or surface you’re working on to a dry area out of direct
sunlight and allow the surface to dry and cool.
STEP 2: WAX APPLICATION
1. With the foam pad facing up, securely attach the smooth Wax On
Applicator Bonnet (bonnet with the plastic liner), making sure the
bonnet is centered on the foam head.
2. Apply wax directly on the Wax Applicator Bonnet, adequately
covering the entire bonnet, and also spread a small amount of
wax to the bonnet edges.
3. Invert the waxer/polisher and place the bonnet directly on the
surface you want to apply the wax to before sliding the Power
Switch to the ON position.
Note:
You can also substitute a good grade of cleaning compound at this
step if the surface is oxidized.
4. Slide the Power Switch to the ON position and steer the
waxer/polisher in long sweeping strokes in a criss-cross figure-
eight pattern, working the wax/cleaner
into the surface.
IMPORTANT: DO NOT APPLY PRESSURE TO THE UNIT. The weight of the polisher is adequate to
do the task correctly.
5. Apply more wax to the bonnet as necessary to maintain a thin even coat on the surface being
polished.
Notes:
Applying more wax than necessary adds no more protection to the surface and
makes the Step 3 (wax removal) more difficult.
It’s easiest to apply wax to the entire surface before starting the removal phase.
For best results, refer to the specific application recommendations of the wax
product being used.
STEP 3: WAX REMOVAL
1. With the foam pad facing up, securely attach the terry cloth Wax Removal Bonnet (double-sided
bonnet without the plastic liner), making sure the bonnet is centered on the foam head.
2. Invert the waxer/polisher and place the bonnet directly on the surface you want to remove the wax
from before sliding the Power Switch to the ON position.
3. Slide the Power Switch to the ON position and follow the same long sweeping strokes in a criss-
cross figure-eight motion previously described, gliding the polisher over the surface, again
permitting the weight of the unit to do the work.
4. Occasionally it becomes necessary to remove the bonnet and shake out the dried polish residue to
avoid streaking. Make sure the polisher is lightly resting on the surface and remains on the
surface when stopping the unit and before powering up the unit again.
5. After removing the wax from all the major flat surfaces, use the edge of the pad to reach curved
or concave surfaces.
STEP 4: FINISH POLISHING
1. With the foam pad facing up, securely attach the foam-padded smooth cloth Polishing Bonnet,
making sure the bonnet is centered on the foam head.
2. Invert the waxer/polisher and place the bonnet directly on the surface you want to polish before
sliding the Power Switch to the ON position.
3. Slide the Power Switch to the ON position and follow the same figure-eight motion described
previously, gliding the polisher over the surface, again permitting the weight of the unit to do the
work.
4. Small areas, such as near and around mirrors, should be finished by hand.
CARE AND MAINTENANCE
Lubrication
Self lubricating bearings are used in this tool and periodic relubrication is not required. However, it is
recommended that, once a year, you take or send the tool to a service center for a thorough cleaning
and inspection. Refer to the “Service Information” section of this Instruction Manual.
Cleaning
All three bonnets can be safely cleaned by hand washing in warm soapy water. Allow bonnets to fully
dry before use.
Plastic parts may be wiped clean with a soft damp cloth. NEVER use solvents when cleaning any
plastic part as this may damage the finish. DO NOT IMMERSE THE WAXER OR ATTACHED FOAM PAD
IN WATER.
Storage
Store the waxer in a “pad-up” position to prevent the attached foam pad from compressing or being
set in a wrong position.
ACCESSORIES
This waxer/polisher is supplied with three accessories (the Wax Applicator Bonnet, Wax Off Bonnet
and Polishing Bonnet). Replacement accessories are available from your local dealer or authorized
service center.
If you need assistance regarding accessories, please call: 1-800-544-6986.
WARNING:
The use of any accessory not supplied for use with this tool could be
hazardous.
