• Avoid using solvents when cleaning plastic parts. Most plastics are susceptible to various
types of commercial solvents and may be damaged by their use. Use only mild soap and
damp cloth to clean the tool. Never let any liquid get inside the tool; never immerse any
part of the tool into a liquid.
• When electric tools are used on fiberglass boats, sports cars, drywall etc., they are subject
to accelerated wear and possible premature failure, as the fiberglass chips and grindings
and drywall dust are highly abrasive to bearings, brushes, commutator, etc. During any
use on fiberglass or drywall it is extremely important that the tool be cleaned frequently
by blowing with an air jet.
