First let's open up the box and take a look inside...





Inside the box you'll find,

One Polisher
Owner's Manual
Protective cover on the factory installed backing plate




Remove the protective cover before trying to affix a buffing pad to the backing plate...





Here's the RUPES LHR21ES Random Orbit Polisher with the Blue Compounding Foam Pad attached to the backing plate.




Well engineered design
The rear handle is well thought-out with the variable speed dial placed on the top of the body so you can easily adjust the speed on the fly using your thumb. The trigger lever is located on the bottom of the ergo handle and there is a trigger lock button on the left hand side to lock the on/off trigger into place while operating the polisher.




The pivot point or the trigger lever is reversed as compared to most polishers, instead of hinging or pivoting at the front it pivots at the rear of the lever.



This design takes advantage of a person's normally strong grip and control of their index and leading fingers.



The range of the variable speed dial runs from 1 to 6 with the 1 speed setting for low OPM's and the 6 speed setting for high OPM's.







A hex key is included and stored onboard for removing and tightening the backing plate to the spindle.






There are 4 fresh air grille vents for air to travel through to control temperatures and keep the tool running cool.
