STORAGE AND MAINTENANCE:
The sander requires virtually no special maintenance. The sander must be
stored in a place unavailable to children, in a clean condition and protected
from humidity and dust. Storage conditions should prevent the possibility
of mechanical damage and the influence of weather conditions.
Cleaning
In order to provide safe and efficient operation, case and ventilation gaps of
the sander should always be free of dust and fouling, if only possible. It is
recommended to clean the tool immediately after each use.
Wipe off the sander with a soft, damp rug with a minute amount of soap.
Do not use any cleaning agents or solvents; they can damage plastic parts of
the sander.
Take care to not let water inside the device.
- check whether the power cord ( 12 ) is correctly plugged in and the
electric power outlet is energized;
- check condition of carbon brushes and replace them if necessary.
