MAINTENANCE
On a regular basis, check that the frame and motor of the angle grinder are not
damaged or exposed to oil or water, tighten all screws and bolts, and make sure
that the tool is free from dust after every use. Once a year, bring your angle grinder
to an authorized service centre for cleaning and lubrication.
There are no parts inside your angle grinder that require professional maintenance.
All that’s needed is some good old fashioned TLC.
However, for safety reasons and for your overall peace of mind, we recommend
having your angle grinder given the once-over by an expert at least every 12
months to ensure that it will continue to operate safely. We must mention though
that all (potentially deviating) national inspection and maintenance regulations
must be observed.
ANGLE GRINDER LIABILITY
This product is covered by an EU directive, valid since 01.01.1990, specifying that
the manufacturer is only liable for products if all the parts originate from the
manufacturer or are approved by them, and if the units are mounted and operated
properly.
If accessories or spare parts from third parties are used, liability can be partially or
completely inapplicable. So no using those shifty parts you picked up on the cheap.
In extreme cases the responsible authorities can prohibit the use of the entire unit.
We recommend you always buy original parts and accessories as compliance with
all safety regulations is guaranteed, meaning you are covered and protected.
