SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Read all warnings, safety instructions and other instructions. Failure to follow all the instructions and safety instructions can result in the risk of electric shock, fire and/or serious personal injury. Save these instructions and safety instructions for future reference.
WORK AREA
- Keep the work area clean and well-lit. Dark and cluttered work areas increase the risk of accidents and injuries.
- Do not use power tools in explosive environments, such as in the vicinity of flammable liquids, gas or dust. Power tools produce sparks that can ignite dust and fumes.
- Keep children and onlookers at a safe distance when using power tools. You can lose control of the tool if you are distracted.
ELECTRICAL SAFETY
- The plug on the power tool must match the power outlet. Never modify the plug in any way. Never use an adapter with earthed power tools. Unmodified plugs and matching outlets reduce the risk of electric shock.
- Avoid body contact with earthed surfaces such as pipes, radiators, cookers and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is earthed. • Do not expose power tools to rain or moisture. There is a greater risk of electric shock if water gets into a power tool.
- Be careful with the power cord. Never use the power cord to carry or pull the tool, or to pull out the plug from the power point . Keep the power cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges and moving parts. Damaged or tangled power cords increase the risk of electric shock.
- If using the tool outdoors, only use an extension cord approved for outdoor use. Cords intended for outdoor use reduce the risk of electric shock.
- If it is necessary to use power tools in damp conditions, use a mains connection protected by a residual current device (RCD). Using an RCD reduces the risk of electric shock.
PERSONAL SAFETY
- Stay alert. Pay attention to what you are doing, and use your common sense when working with power tools. Never use power tools if you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of inattention when using a power tool can result in serious personal injury.
- Use personal safety equipment. Depending on the type of tool and how it is used, safety equipment such as dust masks, non-slip safety shoes, safety helmets, and ear protection reduces the risk of personal injury.
- Avoid accidental starting. Make sure the power switch is in the OFF position before inserting the battery or lifting/carrying the tool. Carrying a power tool with your finger on the switch, or connecting a tool to the mains when the switch is in the ON position, increases the risk of accidents and injuries.
- Remove adjuster keys/spanners before switching on the power tool. Spanners or the like that are left in a rotating part of the tool can cause personal injury.
- Do not overreach. Always maintain a firm footing and good balance. This ensures better control over the power tool in unexpected situations.
- Do not overreach. Always maintain a firm footing and good balance. This ensures better control over the power tool in unexpected situations. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away from moving parts. Loose-fitting clothing, jewellery and long hair can get caught in moving parts.
- If dust extraction and dust collection equipment are available, these should be connected and used correctly. The use of such equipment can reduce the risk of dust-related problems.
- Do not allow the fact that you are used to working with similar tools s cause you to become over-confident and disregard the safety instructions for the tool. A moment of inattention or carelessness can result in serious personal injury.
REDUCTION OF NOISE AND VIBRATIONS
- Plan the work so that exposure to heavy vibrations is spread over a longer period.
- To reduce noise and vibrations when in use, limit the time the tool is in use, and use low-power/vibration mode and suitable safety equipment.
- Take the following precautions to minimise the risks of exposure to vibrations and/or noise:
- Only use the tool according to these instructions.
- Check that the tool is in good condition
- Use accessories in good condition, which are suitable for the purpose.
- Keep a firm grip on the handles/ grips.
- Maintain and lubricate the tool in accordance with these instructions.
DUST
- Dust produced during the work can be harmful to health, carcinogenic, flammable or explosive. Use a dust filter mask and suitable equipment for dust extraction/collection.
- The dust from some alloys can catch fire or explode. Mixtures of materials increase the risk – keep the work area clean.

MEEC MULTI-SERIES
The product is a part of the Meec Multi-series – a series of power tools and garden equipment that uses the same battery and charger.
USE
ACCESSORIES
Materials and accessories for cleaning and polishing, including personal safety equipment, are sold separately in Jula’s department stores and at www.jula.com.
BATTERY
Charging the battery
The battery must be charged before it can be used with a tool. After charging for the first time, use the tool until the battery is completely flat. Repeat this charging and discharging cycle 4 to 5 times.
- If the LEDs on the charger do not go on when charging
- check that the charger’s mains adapter is properly plugged into the power point, and that the charger is switched on
- . Check that the battery is correctly inserted in the charger
- Place the battery charger on a level and stable surface. Plug the charger into a 230 V power point.
- Connect the battery to the charger so that it clicks in place. The red LED on the charger goes on when correct contact is made. FIG. 2
- When the battery is fully charged, after about one hour, the red LED goes off and only the green LED stays on.
- Pull out the plug from the power point and release the battery from the charger. FIG. 3
Connect/remove the battery
Connect the battery to the battery socket on the tool so that it clicks in place. FIG. 4
To remove the battery, press the lock (1) and release as shown in Figure 2. FIG. 5
STARTING AND STOPPING
Set the power switch (1) in position I to start. The display shows 00. Set the power switch (1) in position O to switch off.
ADJUSTING THE SPEED
Increasing the speed
Push the button to increase the speed (5) when the product is running. The set speed is shown on the display and changes in the order of 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, 48 each time the button is pressed. This corresponds to the speeds 2000, 2500, 3000, 3500, 4000, 4500 and 4800 rpm.
Reducing the speed
Push the button to reduce the speed (3) when the product is running. The set speed is shown on the display and changes in the order of 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, 48 each time the button is pressed. This corresponds to the speeds 2000, 2500, 3000, 3500, 4000, 4500 and 4800 rpm.

POLISHING AND WAXING
NOTE
- Make sure the surface to be polished is clean and dry.
- Do not polish in direct sunlight.
- Do not polish in low temperatures or high humidity, as this can produce a mottled result.
- Do not polish outdoors if it is windy; sand and other particles in the air can adhere to the paintwork and have an abrasive effect when polishing.
- Mask edges if necessary to plastic and rubber parts that you do not want to come in contact with the polish.
- Always switch off the machine before lifting it from the surface being polished.
- Do not press the machine; allow the inherent weight of the machine to do the job.
- Note that sharp edges are worked more quickly and that the paintwork on these surfaces can be thinner.
- Clean the bonnets at regular intervals and/or replace them during polishing. Expect to need 2-4 bonnets per car.
- Apply five drops of polish the size of peas on the bonnet. Do not use too much polish, it does not do any good and will fasten in the bonnet and produce an inferior result.
- Place the bonnet on the surface to be polished and start the machine at low speed.
- Spread the polish over a small area (about 30 x 30 cm).
- Increase the speed and move the polisher slowly (about 4 cm/sec) backwards and forwards over the surface a few times.
