MAINTENANCE AND INSPECTION
WARNING

turn the setting sleeve clockwise until it becomes loose from the union sleeve. Twist out the
stop sleeve and clean thread.
NOTE
○
Only clean or vacuum mechanically. Do not use oils or greases.
○
Regularly remove and clean the stopper
3. Inspecting the mounting screws
Regularly inspect all mounting screws and ensure that they are properly tightened. Should
any of the screws be loose, retighten them immediately. Failure to do so may result in
serious hazard.
4. Maintenance of the motor
The motor unit winding is the very “heart” of the power tool.
Exercise due care to ensure the winding does not become damaged and/or wet with oil or
water.
5. Inspection of terminals (tool and battery)
Check to make sure that swarf and dust have not collected on the terminals.
On occasion check prior, during and after operation.
CAUTION
Remove any swarf or dust which may have collected on the terminals.
Failure to do so may result in malfunction.
6. Cleaning of the outside
When the power tool is stained, wipe with a soft dry cloth or a cloth moistened with soapy
water. Do not use chloric solvents, gasoline or paint thinner, as they melt plastics.
Particles may become deposited inside the power tool during operation. This impairs the
cooling of the power tool. The power tool should be cleaned regularly, often and thoroughly
through all front and rear air vents using a vacuum cleaner. Prior to this operation, separate
the power tool from the power source and wear protective goggles and a dust mask.
7. Environmental
protection
Observe national regulations on environmentally compatible disposal and on the recycling
of disused machines, packaging and accessories.
