TROUBLE SHOOTING
WARNING:
• Remove battery before working on machine.
NOTE:
• The internal components of the pump and piston area have very close tolerances and are sensitive to damage from
dust, dirt, contamination of the hydraulic fluid or improper handling. The disassembly of the pump housing requires
special tools and training, and should only be attempted by qualified repair personnel that have been properly trained
and have the right tools. The improper servicing of electrical components can lead to conditions that could cause
serious injury. The pump, piston components and all electrical parts should be serviced only by authorized repair shop,
dealer or distributor.
MAINTENANCE
CAUTION:
• Always be sure that the tool is switched off and the
battery cartridge is removed before attempting to
perform inspection or maintenance.
• Never use gasoline, benzine, thinner, alcohol or the
like. Discoloration, deformation or cracks may result.
Replacing carbon brushes (Fig. 16)
Replace when they wear down to the limit mark. Keep the
carbon brushes clean and free to slip in the holders. Both
carbon brushes should be replaced at the same time. Use
only identical carbon brushes.
Use a screwdriver to remove two screws then remove the
rear cover.

Raise the arm part of the spring and then place it in the
recessed part of the housing with a slotted bit screwdriver
of slender shaft or the like.

Use pliers to remove the carbon brush caps of the carbon
brushes. Take out the worn carbon brushes, insert the
new ones and replace the carbon brush caps in reverse.
(Fig. 19)
Make sure that the carbon brush caps have fit into the
holes in brush holders securely.
