Maintenance and service instructions
The service must only be done by authorized workshops or qualified service technicians.
WARNING Polymer hazard
The vanes in this product contain PTFE (a synthetic fluoropolymer). Due to wear, there might be
PTFE particles inside the product. Heated PTFE can produce fumes which may cause polymer fume
fever with flu-like symptoms, especially when smoking contaminated tobacco.
Health and Safety recommendations for PTFE must be followed when handling vanes and other com-
ponents:
►
Do not smoke when servicing this product
►
PTFE-particles must not come in contact with open fire, glow or heat
►
Motor components must be washed with cleaning fluid and not blown clear with an air line
►
Wash your hands before starting any other activity
Service Recommendations
Preventive maintenance is recommended at regular intervals. See the detailed information on preventive
maintenance. If the product is not working properly, take it out of service and inspect it.
If no detailed information about preventive maintenance is included, follow these general guide-
lines:
■
Clean appropriate parts accurately
■
Replace any defective or worn parts
Overhaul
The tool should be examined regularly at six-month intervals. If it is in heavy duty service or not running
properly it should be taken out of service more often.
To increase life length of gears, change grease and replace bearings and sealings more often.
After a maximum of 1000 hours the angle gear grease shall be changed. If the grease are not changed in
time other angle gear and motor parts might get damaged.
For correct lubrication properties use Rhenus LKR03, a semifluid type of grease. The required amount of
grease is maximum 11 cm³.
The strainer at the air inlet should be cleaned frequently to prevent clogging and decreased capacity.
WARNING Risk of Serious Injury or Death
Overspeed can result in serious injury or death.
►
If a speed governor is used, make sure that the correct speed governor is assembled. Careless
handling may put it out of order
►
Do not disassemble security parts and always replace them if they are damaged.
►
Always do a free speed check of the tool after service.
Replacement of vanes
Replace the vanes in the motor when a power drop of the tool is experienced. If the vanes are not re-
placed in time other motor parts may be damaged. For increased life length of the vanes use an oil lubri-
cator to dose oil into the air inlet.
