MAINTENANCE
Warning:
Do not at any time let brake fluids, gasoline, petroleum-based products, penetrating oils, etc.,
come in contact with plastic parts. Chemicals can damage, weaken or destroy plastic which may result in
serious personal injury.
Regular cleaning is required for the safe operation of the tool, as an excessive buildup of dust will prevent
the tool from operating correctly.
The dust extraction hose (B) may block and require cleaning occasionally, especially if damp wood is
being cut.
1.
Unplug from mains supply.
2.
Clean thoroughly with a small soft brush, like a paint brush.
3.
Keep the cooling vents on the motor housing clean and unobstructed at all times.
4.
Never use any caustic agents or solvents to clean the plastic parts.
Blade
•
Always use a sharp blade.
•
If the tool does not cut as well as expected or if it overheats (temperature cut out may trip) the most
common cause is a blunt blade.
•
It is difficult to see or feel if the blade is blunt. When in doubt use a new blade.
•
Blades are consumable items.
•
Beware when changing blade as they can become hot during use. Allow the blade to cool before
replacing it.
Carbon brush
For safety reasons, the machine automatically switches off if the carbon brushes are so worn out that they
no longer have contact with the motor. In that case, the carbon brushes must be replaced by a pair similar
carbon brush available through the after-sales service organization or qualified professional person.
If they are 6 mm or less then they must both be replaced. Fit new carbon brushes and replace the brush
housing.
CAUTION:
The brushes must always be replaced in pairs.
CAUTION:
Always disconnect the machine from the power supply before removing any electrical
covers.

Open the battery cover located on the top of the motor by using a screwdriver.
2.
