TOOL LUBRICATION

Your Skil tool has been properly lubricated and
is ready to use. It is recommended that tools
with gears be regreased with a special gear
lubricant at every brush change.

CARBON BRUSHES

The brushes and commutator in your tool have
been engineered for many hours of
dependable service. To maintain peak
efficiency of the motor, we recommend every

Only genuine Skil replacement brushes
specially designed for your tool should be
used.
If an extension cord is

necessary, a cord with
adequate size conductors that is capable
of carrying the current necessary for your
tool must be used. This will prevent
excessive voltage drop, loss of power or
overheating. Grounded tools must use 3-wire
extension cords that have 3-prong plugs and
receptacles.
NOTE: The smaller the gauge number, the
heavier the cord.
