Important Safeguards
Please read through this entire manual and retain it for future reference. To prevent
personal injury or equipment damage, the following precautions should be observed:
1. Do not use this equipment for other than its intended purpose. The use of attachments,
supplies or accessory equipment not recommended or sold by Disc Go Technologies may cause
equipment damage and/or personal injury and will void the warranty for the unit.
2. Install the DISC-GO-ROBOTO on a flat level surface at least 24” x 24” (61cm x 61cm).
3. Ensure the DISC-GO-ROBOTO has its own grounded electrical circuit. Do not run the power
cord where it may be subject to wear or abuse. Do not allow anything to rest on or roll over the
power cord which may damage it.
4. To protect against the risk of electrical shock, do not put cord, plug or machine where they
may be exposed to water or moisture.
5. Do not use with a damaged cord or plug. If the DISC-GO-ROBOTO is not working as it should,
has been dropped, damaged, or exposed or dropped into water, call DISC-GO-TECH
Support or your DISC-GO-TECH distributor’s customer service department for service.
6. Turn off the DISC-GO-ROBOTO from the outlet when not in use and before changing
supplies (cartridge, pads).
8. Do not insert objects through the fan grating or other exterior openings.
10. To prevent damage or injury, do not move the DISC-GO-ROBOTO while the lid is open.
11. Do not move the DISC-GO-ROBOTO with a cartridge installed! If the machine is
inadvertently tipped, polish may leak from the cartridge.
12. Avoid coming in contact with any moving parts while the machine is in operation.

Replace Cartridge Solution:
The quality of the repair process is highly dependent on the quality of the polishing
materials used. Both polish and polishing pads have a fixed usage life and must be

any proportional combination thereof.
Solution: a. Press the Lid Release button and open the lid of your DISC-GO-ROBOTO.
