MAINTENANCE (cont.)
Cleaning
•
Keep the ventilation vents of the Mitre Saw clean at all times, if possible,
prevent foreign matter from entering the vents.
•
After each use, blow air through the Mitre Saw housing to ensure it is free from
all dust particles which may build up. Build up of dust particles may cause the
Mitre Saw to overheat and fail.
•
If the enclosure of the Mitre Saw requires cleaning do not use solvents but a
moist soft cloth only. Never let any liquid get inside the Mitre Saw; never
immerse any part of the Mitre Saw into a liquid.
Carbon brushes
When the carbon brushes wear out, the Mitre Saw will spark
and/or stop. Discontinue use as soon as this happens. They
should be replaced prior to recommencing use of the Mitre
Saw. Carbon brushes are a wearing component of the Mitre
Saw and therefore not covered under warranty. Continuing to
use the Mitre Saw when carbon brushes need to be replaced
may cause permanent damage to the tool. Carbon brushes will
wear out after many uses but when the carbon brushes need
to be replaced take the Mitre Saw to an electrician or a power tool repairer for a
quick and low cost replacement. Always replace both carbon brushes at the
same time.
Note:
Ozito Industries will not be responsible for any damage or injuries caused by
the repair of the Mitre Saw by an unauthorised person or by mishandling of the
Mitre Saw.
General Inspection
Regularly check that all the fixing screws are tight. They may vibrate loose over time.
