Weight incl. Battery approx. 0.89 kg
Typical Applications Spot Repair, small paint surfaces, add-on parts, edge areas, finish and high-gloss work
Practical Advantages Cordless, compact, well-controllable, suitable for small pads and narrow work areas
KPI 1
77 mm
Compact backing pad for small surfaces, detail zones, and hard-to-reach areas.
KPI 2
12 mm Orbit
Orbital movement for controlled finish and clean work on sensitive paint surfaces.
KPI 3
< 50 Min.
Guideline for charging time of 2.5 Ah batteries – practical for recurring short and detail jobs.
Practical Tip: Always place the machine on the surface first and then start the polishing process. When lifting, the opposite applies: first remove from the surface, then let it slow down to a stop. This significantly reduces splatters, unnecessary heat, and visible starting marks.

Recommended Basic Settings

The following values are practical guidelines derived from the adjustable speed range of the AROP-B 312 and its intended use as a 77 mm orbital polisher. Adjustments may be useful depending on the paint condition, pad, polish, temperature, and component geometry.

Work Step Recommended Speed Note
Spreading polish / Starting 4,000–4,500 rpm Gentle start with the machine placed on the surface to avoid splatters and scoring.
Correction on small surfaces 5,000–5,500 rpm Good balance of control, finish, and surface performance.
Finish / High Gloss 5,500–6,500 rpm Work with low pressure and keep the pad clean.
Sensitive edges / small zones 4,000–5,000 rpm Short strokes, low pressure, monitor temperature development.

Professional Workflow in 6 Steps

  1. Prepare Component: Clean the surface, remove residues, and mask sensitive edges if necessary.
  2. Select Matching Pad: Yellow for controlled finish, black for finer refinement and gloss adjustment.
  3. Center Pad Properly: The polishing pad must sit correctly on the backing pad for the machine to run smoothly.
  4. Place Machine, Then Start: Dose polish sparingly and spread with a lower recommended speed.
  5. Polish Controlled: Work in short, overlapping passes and use only enough pressure to keep the rotation guided smoothly.
  6. Check Finish and Remove Battery: After the polishing process, remove the machine from the surface, switch it off, remove the battery, and recharge if necessary.

Practical Troubleshooting

1. Machine does not start
Insert battery correctly, check charge status, and recharge immediately if voltage is low.
2. Speed drops significantly or machine stops
Reduce pressure, briefly unload the machine, and check for overheating or excessively long high-load periods.
3. Red LED indicator on battery / device
Battery voltage is too low or battery condition is critical – charge battery or replace if problem persists.
4. Unsteady running / uneven finish
Check pad for correct centering, replace worn pads, and do not place the tool on the surface with too high an initial speed.

Maintenance

  • Remove the battery from the machine before any maintenance.
  • Remove dust deposits with a soft brush.
  • Clean the machine body only with a soft, slightly damp cloth.
  • Do not use aggressive cleaners, alcohol, gasoline, or alkaline solutions.
  • Service and repairs on the opened device should only be handled by authorized Mirka Service Centers.

FAQ

1. Which tasks is the AROP-B package particularly suitable for?

Mainly for small paint surfaces, spot repair, add-on parts, tight areas, and targeted finish work where a large polisher would be impractical.

2. How long does it take to charge the batteries?

For 2.5 Ah batteries, the guideline is under 50 minutes. Larger 5.0 Ah batteries require significantly longer according to the manual.

3. Can I finely adjust the speed?

Yes. The AROP-B 312 operates in defined steps between 4,000 and 7,000 rpm. Additionally, the maximum speed can be limited.

4. What do the LED indicators mean?

The LEDs show active status, charge level, undervoltage, and possible battery or temperature issues. Red typically indicates a need for action.

5. Does the machine support Bluetooth?

Yes, the tool can be connected to the myMirka app via Bluetooth, provided the app function is available in your country.

Conclusion

The Mirka Smart Polisher Package AROP-B is a strong solution for everyone who wants to process small surfaces precisely, cordlessly, and in a controlled manner. Especially in spot repair, finish work, and sensitive zones, the compact 77 mm system shows its advantages. Combined with the included pads, the Polarshine polish, and the handy case, it forms a well-thought-out professional set for clean results in detailed areas.
