KEEP TOOL CLEAN
Periodically blow out all air passages with dry compressed air. Clean all plastic parts with a soft damp cloth. NEVER
use solvents to clean plastic parts. They could possibly dissolve or otherwise damage the material.
Wear ANSI Z87.1 safety glasses while using compressed air.
FAILURE TO START
Should your tool fail to start, check to make sure the prongs on the cord plug are making good contact with the outlet.
Also, check for blown fuses or open circuit breakers in the line.
