Maintenance

WARNING: Always ensure that the
tool is switched off and unplugged before
attempting to perform inspection or mainte-
nance.

GENERAL INSPECTION

Regularly inspect all fasteners and ensure they
are properly tightened. Should any of the screws
be loose, retighten it immediately to avoid haz-
ards.
If the replacement of the supply cord is neces-
sary, this has to be done by the manufacturer or
his agent in order to avoid a safety hazard.
CLEANING
For safe operation always keep the machine
and its ventilation slots clean.
Regularly check to see if any dust or foreign
matter has entered the ventilation slots and the
grills around the switches. Use a soft brush and/
or air jet to remove any accumulated dust. Wear
safety glasses to protect your eyes whilst clean-
ing.
Exterior plastic parts may be cleaned with a
damp cloth and mild detergent if necessary.
WARNING: Never use alcohol, petrol
or other cleaning agent. Never use caustic
agents to clean plastic parts.
WARNING: Water must never come
into contact with the tool.
IMPORTANT! To assure product safety and re-
liability, repairs, maintenance and adjustment
(including brush inspection and replacement)
should be performed by certified service centres
or other qualified service organisations, always
using genuine replacement parts.
BUILT-IN DUST PROTECTION
The protective ring 1 preserves the tool socket

INDICATION "SERVICE MAINTE-
NANCE"
When the red light-emitting diode 10 begins to
blink while the machine operates normally, re-
placement of the brushes is needed. After ap-
proximately 8h operation, the brushes are worn
out completely and the safety switch actuates.
The machine halts and the red light-emitting di-
ode keeps blinking. Deliver the machine to an
authorised service for repla cement of brushes
and preventive main tenance.
If the machine does not operate before the
warning period of 8 hours is over, and the red
light-emitting diode 10 blinks, that probably
means the motor is damaged. In case there is
no light indication and the machine does not op-
erate, that means there is no power supply to
the machine or that the automatic switch or the
cord are faulty.
