13) Use Proper Hearing Protection. Prolonged exposure to tool without hearing protection could promote a loss of hearing.
14) Maintain Tool with Care. Keep tool clean for better and safer performance. Follow instructions for lubricating and changing
accessories. Inspect cord periodically and if damaged, have repaired by authorized Cyclo service facility. Inspect extension cords
periodically and replace if damaged. Keep handles dry, clean, and free from oil and grease.
15) Disconnect Tools. When not in use, before servicing, and when changing accessories, such as heads, sanding jackets, and
bonnets.
16) Remove Adjusting Keys and Wrenches. Form a habit of checking to see that keys and adjusting wrenches are removed from
tool before turning it on.
17) Avoid Unintentional Starting. Do not carry plugged-in tool with finger on switch. Be sure switch is off when plugging in.
18) Use Only Outdoor Extension Cords. Use only extension cords intended for use outdoors and so marked.
19) Stay Alert. Watch what you are doing. Use common sense. Do not operate tool while tired. Keep fingers away from moving
parts at all times.
20) Check Damaged Parts. Before further use of tool, a guard or other part that is damaged should be carefully checked to
determine whether it will operate properly and perform its intended function. Check for alignment of moving parts, binding of
moving parts, breakage of parts, mounting, and any other condition which may affect the tools operation. A guard or other part that
is damaged should be properly repaired or replaced by an authorized Cyclo service center unless otherwise indicated elsewhere in
this instruction manual. Have defective switches replaced by authorized Cyclo service center. Do not use tool if switch does not turn
tool on and off.
21) Insulated Handles. Do not operate the tool without the properly insulated handles. NOTE: If shrink wrap insulation on the
handle is damaged or is removed at the time of repair, it must be replaced before the tool is put back into service. The proper precut
length is available from an authorized Cyclo service center.
22) Use only Cyclo Toolmakers Recommended Products. The use of any other accessories or attachments other than those
recommended in the operating instructions or the catalogue may present a risk of personal injury, and could void any warranties.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Using the Cyclo polisher:
Your Cyclo tool has two heads rather than the single head you may be accustomed to seeing. As soon as the Cyclo tool is placed on
a working surface, orbital “hand-rubbing” action takes place. Therein lies the secret of its ability to do many different types of jobs
that could not be done with single head or rotary tools. The two heads move in a circular, overlapping motion and are
counterweighted to balance. Thus, very little centrifugal force is exerted and the vibration, heat and throwing action of a rotary tool
is eliminated.
No matter how much pressure you apply to your Cyclo tool, whether you are sanding or polishing, the machine remains steady. The
more pressure you apply the harder the heads work, although even, moderate pressure works best in most situations. The hand-like
action of the counterbalanced heads prevents surface damage, regardless of the pressure applied. It is impossible to burn, mar, or
gouge the surface, either in sanding or polishing. Move the machine slowly; you need not be afraid of burning the surface.
The polishing pads:
1) There are multiple types of Cyclo pads. Below is a list of Cyclo’s full line of pads in order of aggressiveness.
