“Gloss Boss” Burnisher GB-1500X
Operation & Care Instructions
This 1500-RPM burnisher is a high quality, precision made product. All parts used in the
manufacturing of this burnisher have passed rigid quality control standards prior to assembly,
and an "each unit" final inspection prior to packaging is your assurance of proper assembly.
This burnisher was protectively packed to prevent possible damage in transit. Should damage
occur,please notify the transporting carrier immediately for loss and/or claim.
IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
GROUNDING:
This burnisher must be grounded while in use to protect the
operator from electric shock. The burnisher is equipped with
an approved three-conductor cord and three-prong grounding
type plug to fit the proper grounding type receptacle. The
green (or green and yellow) conductor in the cord is the
groundingwire. Neverconnectthegreen(orgreenandyellow)
wire to a live terminal.
If your unit is for use on less than 150
volts, it has a plug like that shown in
Figure A.
If it is for use on 150 to 250 volts, it has a
plug like that shown in Figure D.
An adapter (Figures B&C) is available for connecting Figure A
plugs to two-prong receptacles. The green-colored rigid ear,
lug etc., must be connected to a permanent ground such as a
properly grounded outlet box. No adapter is available for a
plug as shown in Figure D. Adapter shown in Figure B & C is
not for use in Canada.
MOTOR:
This burnisher is powered by a 1-1/2 HP AC motor. Be sure
your power supply agrees with the voltage marked on the
name plates. A voltage decrease of more than 10% will cause
the motor to slow down, thus increasing the current draw and
opening the circuit breaker.
EXTENSION CORDS:
Burnishers that have 3 wire cords requiring grounding must
only be used with extension cords that have 3-prong
grounding type plugs and 3-pole receptacles.
To determine the minimum wire size required, refer to the
chart below:

when working on this burnisher.
ABOUT THE MACHINE
TO ADJUST HANDLE:
This burnisher is packaged with the handle folded forward and
the foot pedal in the up position.
1. Depress the foot pedal then raise the handle until the open-
ing in the bottom of the handle is centered over the handle
lock.
2. Return the foot pedal to the up position, which allows the
centerlock to position inside the handle. The handle is now
LOCKED for travel.
3. When ready to operate, depress the foot pedal,then lock by
pushing forward. The handle is now FREE FLOATING.
Note: The handle on this burnisher MUST BE FREE FLOATING
to permit proper operation.
TO ATTACH PAD:
1. With handle locked in the upright position, tilt burnisher
back on the handle until the underside is fully exposed.
2. Remove the plastic pad lock by turning clockwise.
3. Install pad.
4. Lock center device by turning counter-clockwise.
NOTE: Never Operate the Burnisher without a pad.
TO START:
The normal position of this burnisher, with the pad stationary,
is tilted back on the four wheels with the pad off the floor.
1. Remove cable completely from cable hooks.
2. With the handle in free float position and the power cable
plugged into the proper outlet, squeeze the switch bar
beneath the handle grips.
3. As the motor reaches full speed (1-2 seconds),the pad will
slowly fall to the floor due to the partial vacuum between
the pad and the floor created by the high speed pad rota-
tion.
TO OPERATE:
For best result,use a clean pad and change frequently as pad
loads up. A motor overload could result from a dirty, loaded
pad. If the built-in circuit breaker trips, wait five (5) seconds,
then depress button on the side of the switchbox. Change the
pad.
Operate the burnisher in a straight-line path. Avoid continuous
operation inonespot,assuchoperationmaydamage thefloor.
