W1681 Buffing Assembly
The Model W1681 buffing assembly is a simple and straight-
forward machine to use. There are many different styles
of discs and compounds to choose from. It is very impor-
tant that you do not use grinding wheels on this machine.
The buffing assembly is designed exclusively for buffing
and polishing only.
Select the
3
⁄4" buffing wheels that you want to
install on the machine.
Loosen the arbor nuts located on each end of the
arbor. The left hand end of the arbor has left hand
threads and the right hand end of the arbor has right
hand threads.
Sandwich each buffing wheel between the wheel
flanges, making certain the convex side of the
washer faces away from the body of the buffing
wheels. Use only the wheel flanges supplied with the
machine.
Slide the buffing wheel assemblies onto each end of
the arbors and securely tighten each of the arbor
nuts, as shown in 7
Turn the buffing assembly ON and apply the desired
buffing compound to the rotating edge of the
wheels. Be sure to wear safety glasses and dust
mask, as compound often flies off during application
and operation.
