Maintenance Tips
-
Clean polishing tool after every job: Remove slurry, stone dust, and abrasive residue from the polisher, pads, and profiler wheel.
-
Flush wet system immediately: Rinse water hose, fittings, and wet sanding kit to prevent clogging and mineral buildup.
-
Check profiler wheel wear: Inspect bullnose profiling wheel regularly for uneven wear or damage to maintain consistent edge shaping.
-
Maintain backing pads: Replace hook-and-loop pads when grip weakens to ensure stable sanding performance.
-
Inspect electrical components: Keep cords, switches, and GFCI dry and free of slurry contamination for safe operation.
-
Lubricate moving parts lightly: Prevent stiffness in tool rotation and extend motor life (follow manufacturer-safe lubricants only).
-
Store dry and protected: Keep all components in a dry case to avoid corrosion, especially metal fittings and spindle parts.
-
Avoid dry operation: Always use wet mode during use to prevent overheating and tool damage.
-
Check RPM settings: Operate within recommended variable speed range (approx. 700–3500 RPM) for
