MAINTENANCE
Your BLACK+DECKER appliance has been designed
to operate over a long period of time with a minimum of
maintenance. Continuous satisfactory operation depends
upon proper appli- ance care and regular cleaning.
f Keep the appliance clean and dry.
f Remove any leaves stuck to the inside of the vacuum
tube.
f Regularly clean the ventilation slots with a clean, dry
paint brush.
f Regularly clean the collection bag and ensure that it is
clean and empty after each use.
f To clean the appliance, use only mild soap and a
damp cloth. Never let any liquid get inside the tool and
never immerse any part of the tool into liquid. Do not
use any abrasive or solvent-based cleaner.
f Self lubricating bearings are used in your product,
there- fore lubrication is not required.
MAINTENANCE
Keep guards, air vents and the motor housing as clear as
possible of dust and dirt. Wipe with a clean cloth and blow
through with a low-pressure air supply. Excessive build-up
of metal dust can cause tracking of electrical current from
the internal parts to exposed metal parts.
Important! To assure product SAFETY and RELIABILITY,
repairs, maintenance and adjustment (other than those
listed in this manual) should be performed by authorized
service centers or other qualified service personnel,
always using identical replacement parts.
