Using the Metabo PE 15 - 20 RT Angle Polisher is easy. First, make sure to check the delivery scope and that all necessary accessories are included. Before starting, set your desired speed using the Vario - Tacho - Constamatic (VTC) Full Wave Electronics with Thumbwheel. This will let you work at a speed that suits the material you're polishing. When you're ready to start, use the speed control trigger with lock function for a smooth start - up to your pre - selected speed. During use, hold the polisher by the rubberized front cap and slim grip area. This will give you a good hold and help reduce fatigue. Remember, the machine has overload protection, so if it starts to work too hard, it will protect the motor from overheating. Also, the restart protection will prevent it from starting up unexpectedly if the power is interrupted. After you're done using the polisher, unplug it from the power source. To keep it in good condition, clean it regularly and check the carbon brushes. The auto - stop carbon brushes will protect the motor, but it's still a good idea to check them every now and then. Store the polisher in a dry place to prevent any damage.
