MAINTENANCE AND PARTS
REPLACEMENT
Regular inspection and cleaning reduces the necessity for maintenance operations and will keep
your tool in good working condition. The tool bearings are life-long lubricated. The motor must be
correctly ventilated during tool operation. For this reason avoid blocking the air inlets with hands.
After use disconnect the tool from the power supply and clean carefully, use compressed air
through the ventilation slots.
DISPOSAL
At the end of the machine’s working life, or when it can no longer be repaired, ensure that it is
disposed of according to the standard regulations of the country in which it is being used, and that
the disposal operation is carried out by specialized personnel following authorized guidelines. In
all circumstances:
– Do not abandon in the environment;
– Do not dispose of together with solid urban waste products;
– Contact the special recycling centres.
WARNING – Disconnect the plug from the power supply socket before replacing any parts.
BRUSHES
The brushes must be replaced after approximately 150-200 working hours, or if they are less than
5-6mm in length.
WARNING – For correct tool operation always change the brushes in pairs, not separately.
The use of original Draper Tool spare parts is recommended. After having fitted new
brushes run the motor without load for at least five minutes for the brushes to bed in.
IMPORTANT – This operation should only be performed by an authorized person.
REPLACING THE POWER SUPPLY CABLE
Check that the power supply cable is in good condition, if not have it replaced by an authorized
person.
