tools with gears be regreased with a special
gear lubricant at every brush change.

The brushes and commutator in your tool
have been engineered for many hours of
dependable service. To maintain peak
efficiency of the motor, we recommend every
two to six months the brush es be examined.
Only genuine Bosch replace ment brushes
specially designed for your tool should be
used.
BEARINGS
Bearings which become noisy (due to heavy
load or very abrasive material cut ting) should
be replaced at once to avoid overheating or
motor failure.
Cleaning
To avoid accidents always
dis connect the tool from
the power supply before cleaning or
performing any main tenance.
The tool may
be cleaned most effectively with compressed
dry air.
Always wear safety gog gles when
cleaning tools with compressed air.
Ventilation openings and switch levers must
be kept clean and free of foreign matter. Do
not at tempt to clean by inserting pointed
objects through openings.
Certain cleaning agents and
sol vents damage plastic
parts.
Some of these are: gasoline, carbon
tetrachlo ride, chlo rinated cleaning solvents,
ammonia and house hold detergents that
contain ammonia.
