- Unscrew the 4 gear housing screws (a).
CAUTION! Do not remove the gear housing!
- Turn the gear housing to the desired position
without removing it.
- Screw in the 4 gear housing screws (a) in the
available threads! Tightening torque = 3.4 Nm +/-
0.7 Nm.
Particles may become deposited inside the power
tool during operation. This impairs the cooling of the
power tool. Conductive build-up can impair the
protective insulation of the power tool and create an
electrical hazard.
The power tool should be cleaned regularly, often
and thoroughly through all front and rear air vents
using a vacuum cleaner or by blowing in dry air.
Prior to this operation, separate the power tool from
the power source and wear protective glasses and
suitable dust mask. Ensure appropriate suction is
available when blowing out vents.
- Restart protection: The machine does not
start. The restart protection is active. If the mains
plug is inserted with the machine switched on, or if
the current supply is restored following an
interruption, the machine does not start up. Switch
the machine off and on again.
- When switched on, the machine accelerates
to maximum speed very quickly, i.e. automatic
restriction of the starting current does not work
(soft start). An electronic error exists. Other
safety-related electronic functions are no longer
available. Have the machine repaired immediately
(see 12.).
Use only genuine Metabo accessories.
Use only accessories that fulfil the requirements
and specifications listed in these operating instruc-
tions.
Fit accessories securely. Secure the machine if it is
operated in a bracket. Loss of control can cause
personal injury.
Always use the suitable accessory and the
prescribed guard for the matching guard for
the application. See page 4. (Illustrations are
examples).
