CARE, MAINTENANCE AND STORAGE
Warning! Risk of injury! Before performing any operation unplug the power cord from the
wall socket.
Warning: Other maintenance and repair work than those listed in this manual, must only be
performed by an authorized manufacturer's service. When the cable is damaged it may only
be replaced by an authorized manufacturer’s service. Safety and operational reliability can
only be guaranteed when using original spare parts.
The power tool is almost maintenance‐free
• Keep the power tool and the air vents clean and unplugged.
• Make sure that no moisture reaches the inside of the power tool during cleaning.
• Check the condition of carbon brushes after every approximately 100 running hours. Release screw
caps (13) on each side of the motor housing and pull out the old brushes. When worn out (shorter
than 5 mm), have the brushes replaced with new ones (contact your seller or a qualified electrician).
Cleaning
• Clean the power tool after every use. Remove dust with a brush or compressed air if necessary.
• Clean the power tool with a wet cloth. Do not use cleaning agents or solutions; these can corrode the
plastic parts of the power tool.
Storage
• Keep the tool in a dry and safe place.
