Many of these operations can be dangerous or deadly if performed incorrectly. The instructions in this section are written with the understanding that the operator has the necessary knowledge and skills to operate this machine. If at any time you are experiencing difficulties performing any operation, stop using the machine! If you are an inexperienced operator, we strongly recommend that you read books, trade articles, or seek training from an experienced buffer operator before performing any unfamiliar operations. Above all, your safety should come first! READ and understand this entire instruc- tion manual before using this machine. Serious personal injury may occur if safety and operational information is not understood and followed. DO NOT risk your safety by not reading! Testing Once assembly is complete and adjustments have been made, the machine is ready for a test run. The purpose of a test run is to identify any unusual noises and vibrations, as well as to confirm the machine is performing as intended. To test run your buffer setup, do these steps: 1. Turn the machine ON by pressing the START button on the power switch. Be sure to have your finger poised to hit the STOP button if there is a problem. 2. Once the machine is running, listen for any unusual noises. The machine should run smoothly with little or no vibrations. 3. If there are any unusual noises or vibrations, shut the machine OFF immediately. The machine should not be run any further until the problems are corrected. 4. Unplug the machine and investigate the source of the noise or vibration. Do not make any adjustments to the machine while it is plugged in. 5. Repeat Steps 1-4 until machine runs smoothly. Always wear safety glasses when oper- ating this machine. Failure to comply may result in serious personal injury. DO NOT investigate problems or adjust the machine while it is running. Wait until the machine is turned OFF, unplugged and all working parts have come to a complete stop before proceeding! -10 W1681 Buffing Assembly Buffing/Polishing The Model W1681 buffing assembly is a simple and straightforward machine to use. There are many different styles of discs and compounds to choose from. It is very important that you do not use grinding wheels on this machine. The buffing assembly is designed exclusively for buffing and polishing only. To use your buffing assembly, do these steps: 1. Select the 3.4" buffing wheels that you want to install on the machine. 2. Loosen the arbor nuts located on each end of the arbor. The left hand end of the arbor has left hand threads and the right hand end of the arbor has right hand threads. 3. Sandwich each buffing wheel between the wheel flanges, making certain the convex side of the washer faces away from the body of the buffing wheels. Use only the wheel flanges supplied with the machine. 4. Slide the buffing wheel assemblies onto each end of the arbors and securely tighten each of the arbor nuts, as shown in Figure 7. 5. Turn the buffing assembly ON and apply the desired buffing compound to the rotating edge of the wheels. Be sure to wear safety glasses and dust mask, as compound often flies off during application and operation. 6. Follow these tips while buffing your workpiece: • Thoroughly clean all parts that you plan to buff. Any kind of dirt, oil, rust, paint or other film must be removed either chemically or sprayed off with water. Make sure to dry off parts with a rag after cleaning. • Only use the area indicated in Figure 8 to do the actual buffing. Contacting the workpiece on areas outside the correct area may flip the workpiece out of your hands. • Hold the workpiece tightly at all times while buffing. Placing one hand near the contact point will give you better control. Arbor Shaft Buffing Wheel Arbor Nuts Wheel Flanges Figure 7. Buffing wheel assembled on arbor.
