MAINTENANCE AND INSPECTION

WARNING
○ For inspection and maintenance, be sure to
turn off the vacuum switch and disconnect the
battery.
○ Do not work with wet hands. May cause electric
shock or injuries.
1. Maintenance of fi lter
NOTE
○ Since a fi lter is a consumable, we recommend
you to prepare spares.
○ The cloth fi lter should simply be tapped even if
it is considerably clogged. Strong brushing will
shorten its life.
○ Do not hurl a fi lter. May break its resin part.
A clogged fi lter will decrease the suction power
remarkably. Tap the inner side of the fi lter to
drop off dusts regularly.
2. 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 could result in
serious hazard.
3. 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.
4. 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.
5. Check for Dust
Dust may be removed with a soft cloth or a
cloth dampened with soapy water. Do not use
bleach, chlorine, gasoline or thinner, for they
may damage the plastics.
6. Storage
Storing in a place below 104°F (40°C) and out
of the reach of children.

NOTE
Storing lithium-ion batteries.
Make sure the lithium-ion batteries have been
fully charged before storing them.
Prolonged storage (3 months or more) of
batteries with a low charge may result in
performance
reducing battery usage time or rendering the
batteries incapable of holding a charge.
However, signifi cantly reduced battery usage
time may be recovered by repeatedly charging
and using the batteries two to fi ve times.
If the battery usage time is extremely short
despite repeated charging and use, consider
the batteries dead and purchase new batteries.
7. Service and repairs
All quality power tools will eventually require
servicing or replacement of parts because
of wear from normal use. To assure that only
authorized replacement parts will be used,
all service and repairs must be performed
by a metabo HPT AUTHORIZED SERVICE
CENTER, ONLY.
Important notice on the batteries for the
metabo HPT cordless power tools
Please always use one of our designated genuine
batteries. We cannot guarantee the safety and
performance of our cordless power tool when
used with batteries other than these designated
by us, or when the battery is disassembled and
modifi ed (such as disassembly and replacement
