MAINTENANCE
WARNING:
Make sure the tool is disconnected from its power source before attempting
any maintenance, cleaning, or inspection.
•
Maintain your tools. It is recommended that the general condition of any tool be examined
before it is used. Keep your tools in good repair by adopting a program of conscientious
repair and maintenance in accordance with the recommended procedures found in this
manual. If any abnormal vibrations or noise occurs, turn the tool off immediately and have
the problem corrected before further use. Have necessary repairs made by a qualified
service provider.
•
Use only soap and a damp cloth to clean your tools. Many household cleaners are harmful
to plastics and other insulation. Never let liquid get inside a tool.
•
It is normal for nickel-cadmium batteries to gradually lose their power-retention capacity over
hundreds of charge cycles. When this happens, replacement of the battery pack will be
required.
•
Motor polarity is important; the positive (red wire) must be connected to the positive terminal
on the motor, which is identified with the small plastic dot next to it.
•
The green ground wire must be secured under the motor mounting screw.
