Applications
Use for compatible floor restoration and preparation in commercial, industrial or residential work. The machine supplies rotary power; the selected brush, pad or abrasive determines whether you are resurfacing concrete, polishing stone, screening wood or sanding.
Selection and Use
- Match tooling to both the task and the 165 RPM drive.
- Check electrical supply and machine configuration before operation.
- Use the added weights only within the limits of the machine and attached tool. Some coating-removal tools have lower machine-weight limits.
- Review the existing manual for handling, startup and maintenance before use.
