The splash guard to prevent water and dust from going inside the tool. The build in-line Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) with the power supply cord to protect the operator.

(1) DAMO dry pads are used for dry polishing of soft stones such as marble, or light color stones.
(2) Ware an apron, a gauze mask and safety glasses first. Connect a Back Holder to the Polisher, and attach a Damo Dry Pad of grit 50 to the Back Holder. Set the speed at 3,000-4,000RPM and start polishing process.
(3) Moving two passes across and one pass up and down is a good technique. After polishing with each grit pad, make sure to wipe clean the working surface with a wet towel. This will prevent any left over polishing particles that will get into the next grit pad to scratch the surface. Make sure all prior scratches are removed before moving onto the next grit. Repeat the same process using all 7 pads to complete the polishing process. Polish from grit 50 to grit 3000 respectively. Do not skip.
(4) If you want to achieve the best polishing results on light color granite, use white Buff Pad as the last step. Wet the workpiece and run the Buff Pad semi-wet with very low water. When the water is consumed, the process is complete. Repeat as necessary to improve the luster and achieve the mirror effect result.
