5. Aluminum, copper alloys, lead alloys, zinc alloys and tin may be cut at various
speeds, depending on the type of cutting being done. Use paraffin or other suitable
lubricant on the cutter to prevent the cut material from adhering to the cutter teeth.
Maintenance
WARNING: NO USER SERVICEABLE PARTS INSIDE. Preventive maintenance
performed by unauthorized personnel may result in misplacing of internal wires and
components which could cause serious hazards. We recommend that all tool service be
performed by an authorized service center. Disconnect tool and/or charger from power
source before servicing.
D.C. motors
The motor in your tool has been engineered for many hours of dependable service. To
maintain peak efficiency of the motor, we recommend it be examined every six months.
Only a genuine replacement motor specially designed for your tool should be used.
Cleaning
WARNING: To avoid accidents, always disconnect the tool and/or charger from the
power supply before cleaning. The tool may be cleaned most effectively with
compressed dry air. Always wear safety goggles when cleaning tools with compressed
air.
Ventilation openings and switch levers must be kept clean and free of foreign matter. Do
not attempt to clean by inserting pointed objects through opening.
CAUTION
Certain cleaning agents and solvents damage plastic parts. Some of these are: gasoline,
carbon tetrachloride, chlorinated cleaning solvents, ammonia and household detergents
that contain ammonia.
Extension Cords
WARNING: If an extension cord is necessary, a cord with adequate size conductors that
is capable of carrying the current necessary for your tool must be used. This will prevent
excessive voltage drop, loss of power or overheating. Grounded tools must use 3-wire
extension cords that have 3-prong plugs and receptacles.
