Product Overview

The RUPES BigFoot LK900E Mille Gear‑Driven Polisher (LK900E/US/STD) bridges the gap between random orbital and rotary polishers, delivering the best characteristics of both movements. Its forced‑rotation gear‑driven system provides powerful correction capability with exceptional stability, making it ideal for technicians who want rotary‑like cutting performance without the risk of excessive heat or holograms.

The Mille is engineered around a unique clockwise rotation — unlike competitive forced‑rotation tools — which improves control, reduces lateral movement, and minimizes operator fatigue. This makes the Mille feel more natural and predictable, especially during extended polishing sessions.

Designed for both beginners and professionals, the Mille offers fast defect removal, consistent pad rotation, and smooth operation across a wide range of surfaces. It is highly effective for automotive paint correction, marine gelcoat restoration, RV finishing, and heavy‑equipment detailing.

Like all BigFoot tools, the LK900E features premium ergonomics including rubberized grips, low vibration, a large speed dial, a progressive trigger, and an extra‑long 29.6 ft (9 m) power cord for maximum mobility.

This package includes the Mille polisher, one 5" (125mm) backing plate (980.037) and one 6" (150mm) backing plate (981.089).

Made in Italy.

Features & Benefits

Forced Gear‑Driven Movement

Provides consistent pad rotation and powerful defect removal while minimizing heat buildup and reducing the risk of surface damage.

Clockwise Rotation

RUPES’ in‑house motor design drives the tool clockwise, improving control and reducing unwanted lateral movement compared to counterclockwise forced‑rotation tools.

Balanced Power & Ergonomics

Ideal for operators who want forced‑action performance without the drawbacks of rotary polishers. Smooth, stable, and comfortable during extended use.

Tuned Electronic Speed Module

Large, high‑visibility speed dial allows easy adjustments with the thumb. The module is tuned to deliver peak torque and optimal performance across the most commonly used speed ranges.

Progressive Trigger

Acts as a throttle for precise speed control within the dial range. Enables subtle adjustments without interrupting the polishing process.

Extra‑Long Power Cord

Generous 29.6 ft (9 m) cord provides excellent reach around the vehicle or workspace without needing extension cords.
