MAINTENANCE
WARNING: To reduce the risk of injury from
unexpected starting or electrical shock, unplug
the power cord before working on the machine.
Keep the tool clean. Remove accumulated dust
from working parts. Make sure that the tool ope-
rates properly. Periodically check screws and
bolts for tightness.
Keeping Tool Clean
Periodically blow out all air passages with dry
compressed air every 100 hours of use. All pla-
stic parts should be cleaned with a soft damp
cloth. NEVER use solvents to clean plastic parts.
They could possibly dissolve or otherwise dama-
ge the material. Wear safety glasses while using
compressed air. Every 200 hours, have the lubri-
cant in the gearbox replaced by a qualified servi-
ce center.
Replacing Carbon Brushes
The carbon brushes furnished will last approxi-
mately 50 hours of running time or 10,000 on/off
cycles. Replace both carbon brushes when either
has less than 1/4" length of carbon remaining. To
inspect or replace brushes, first unplug the
machine. Unscrew the motor housing by remo-
ving the four screws. Pull back on the carbon
brush springs to release the tension. Unscrew
the screw holding the carbon brush lead. Then
pull out the brush. Repeat for the other side. To
reassemble reverse the procedure. The ears on
the metal end of the brush assembly go in the
same hole the carbon part fits into.
NOTE: To reinstall the same brushes, first make
sure the brushes go back in the way they came
out. Otherwise a break-in period will occur that
will reduce motor performance and increase
brush wear. It is recommended that, at least once
a year, you take the tool to an Authorized Service
Center for a thorough cleaning and lubrication.
WARNING: To ensure safety and reliability, all
repairs, with the exception of externally accessi-
ble brushes, should be performed at an
