Cleaning and care

cleaning substances to clean the tool. Wipe only with a
clean and dry cloth.
• Always keep the air vents clean and free of any
obstruction to guarantee the right cooling of the motor.
• Regularly inspect all the fitting screws and double-check
they are properly tightened. In the event some of the
screws are loose, tighten immediately.
• The casing and the motor are the heart of a power tool.
Use extreme care to avoid oil or water spills.
• From time to time check the power cable to detect any
type of damage. If the cable is damaged make it replaced
in a
Authorized Service Center.

pulleys and the surrounding area.
