MAINTENANCE &
PART REPLACEMENT
Regular inspection and cleaning reduces the
necessity for maintenance operations and will
keep your tool in good working condition.
The tool bearings and gears are life-long
lubricated, however it is advised to check the
condition of the grease in the gearbox every
100 hours, if necessary replace the grease. 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 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.

socket before replacing any parts.
BRUSHES
The brushes must be replaced after approx.
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 spare parts is recommended.

motor to run for at least five minutes without
load for the brushes to bed in.
