sweeping motion

Maintenance
WARNING: Always remove the plug from the mains power supply before
carrying out any maintenance/cleaning.
Spool maintenance
• After every use, ensure that all waste material is removed from the spool
Cleaning
• Keep your machine clean at all times. Dirt and dust will cause internal
parts to wear quickly, and shorten the machine's service life. Clean the
body of your machine with a soft brush, or dry cloth. If available, use
clean, dry, compressed air to blow through the ventilation holes
Disposal
• Do not dispose of power tools, or other waste electrical and electronic
equipment, with household waste
• Contact your local waste disposal authority for information on the correct
way to dispose of tools
