Using the Makita Wet Polisher PW5001C is quite straightforward. First, connect the water hose to the common fitting. Then, plug in the GFCI plug to a power source. Adjust the variable speed control dial based on the stone you're working on, like granite or marble. When starting the polisher, the soft - start feature will give you a smooth start. During operation, the electronic speed control will keep the speed steady. Remember to always use it in a well - ventilated area. As for maintenance, after each use, turn off the polisher and unplug it. Wipe down the housing cover to protect the gear housing. Check the 3 holes at the spindle top regularly to make sure they're not blocked. Also, the overload switch is there to protect the armature, but if it trips, let the polisher cool down before trying again. Keep the polisher in a dry place when not in use to extend its lifespan.
