Maintenance of the motor
Always perform the maintenance of the motor with the machine isolated from the electrical supply.
Lubrication
The CHW uses life-lubricated bearings. Therefore, you don’t need to lubricate the machine at all.
Cleaning of the machine
Your machine will last longer if you clean it thoroughly after each day of work, especially water
pump, water pan (which can be removed for easy cleaning), motor and blade flange.
Never use acid-based cleaning products, as the aluminium parts (water tray, rails, motor housing)
can be corroded by these cleaning products. Always clean the machine when any cutting dust and
debris is still fresh, never allow the deposits to solidify. To make the cleaning of the pump tank
easier, you can open it as shown on picture 7:
