Maintenance
Make sure that the machine is not live when carrying out
maintenance work on the motor.
The machines have been designed to operate over a long period of time with
a minimum of maintenance. Continuous satisfactory operation depends upon
proper machine care and regular cleaning.
Cleaning
Keep the ventilation slots of the machine clean to prevent overheating of the
engine. Regularly clean the machine housing with a soft cloth, preferably
after each use. Keep the ventilation slots free from dust and dirt. If the dirt
does not come off use a soft cloth moistened with soapy water. Never use
solvents such as petrol, alcohol, ammonia water, etc. These solvents may
damage the plastic parts.
Lubrication
The machine requires no additional lubrication.
Faults
Should a fault occur, e.g. after wear of a part, please contact the service
address on the warranty card. In the back of this manual you will find an
exploded view showing the parts that can be ordered.
Environment
To prevent damage during transport, the appliance is delivered in a solid
packaging which consists largely of reusable material. Therefore please make
use of options for recycling the packaging. NiCd cells are recyclable.

Faulty and/or discarded electrical or electronic apparatus have to
be collected at the appropriate recycling locations.
General safety instructions
Warning! Read all instructions. Failure to follow all instructions listed below
may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury. The term “power tool”
in all of the warnings listed below refers to your mains operated (corded)
power tool or battery operated (cordless) power tool. Save these instructions!
1) Work area
a. Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered and dark areas invite accidents.
b. Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the
presence of flammable liquids, gasses or dust. Power tools create sparks
which may ignite the dust of fumes.
c. Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool.
Distractions can cause you to lose control.
2) Electrical safety
a. Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any
way. Do not use any adapter plugs which earthed (grounded) power tools.
Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will reduce risk of electric shock.
b. Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces such as pipes,
radiators, ranges and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric
shock if your body is earthed or grounded.
c. Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a
power tool will increase the risk of electric shock.
d. Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling or
unplugging the power tool. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or
moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of electric shock.
