7.1 Care and maintenance of the power tool
DANGER
Electric shock due to breakdown of protective insulation.
When working on metal under extreme
conditions, conductive dust (e.g. metal, carbon fiber) may accumulate inside the power tool, thereby
adversely affecting the protective insulation.
▶
Use a stationary dust extraction system when working under extreme conditions.
▶
Clean the air vents frequently.
WARNING
Electrical hazards.
Improper repairs to electrical parts may lead to serious injuries.
▶
Electrical parts may be repaired only by trained electrical specialists.
CAUTION
Unintentional starting.
If the battery is not removed from the power tool there is a risk of the power
tool starting unintentionally while it is being cleaned. This could lead to injury.
▶
Remove the battery from the power tool before beginning cleaning.
▶
Keep the power tool, especially its grip surfaces, clean and free from oil and grease. Do not use cleaning
agents containing silicone.
▶
Never operate the angle grinder when the air vents are blocked. Clean the air vents carefully using a dry
brush. Do not permit foreign objects to enter the interior of the power tool.
▶
Clean the outer surfaces of the power tool with a slightly damp cloth at regular intervals. Do not use a
spray system, pressure jet washer or running water for cleaning as this may negatively affect the electrical
safety of the power tool.
Note
Frequent work on conductive materials (e.g. metal, carbon fiber) may make shorter maintenance
intervals necessary. Take your individual workplace risk assessment into account.
Note
To help ensure safe and reliable operation, use only genuine Hilti spare parts and consumables.
