CARE AND MAINTENANCE
WARNING
• When servicing, use only identical replacement parts. Use of any other parts may create a hazard
or cause product damage.
• Always wear safety goggles or safety glasses with side shields during power tool operation or
when blowing dust. If the operation is dusty, also wear a dust mask.
General maintenance
Avoid using solvents when cleaning plastic parts. Most plastics are susceptible to damage from vari-
ous types of commercial solvents and may be damaged by their use. Use clean cloths to remove dirt,
dust, lubricant, grease, etc..
• Do not at any time let brake uids, gasoline, petroleum-based products, penetrating oils, etc.,
come in contact with plastic parts. Chemicals can damage, weaken, or destroy plastic, which may
result in serious personal injury.
Lubrication
• All of the bearings in this product are lubricated with a sufcient amount of high grade lubricant for
the life of the unit under normal operating conditions. Therefore, no further lubrication is required.

• Before performing any maintenance, make sure the battery is removed. Failure to heed this warn-
ing could result in serious personal injury.
