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.

REPLACEMENT OF CORD AND
CARBON BRUSHES
Your tool is designed to provide a qualified
service technician optimal access to replace
the carbon brushes and the cord. This
provides the service technician the ability to
replace these components without the need
of disassembling the entire tool housing.
Cleaning
To avoid accidents always
disconnect the tool from
the power supply before cleaning or
performing any maintenance. The tool may
be cleaned most effectively with
compressed dry air. Always wear safety
goggles when cleaning tools with
compressed air.
Ventilation openings and switch levers must
be kept clean and free of foreign matter. Do
not attempt to clean by inserting pointed
objects through openings.
Certain cleaning agents
and solvents damage
plastic parts. Some of these are: gasoline,
carbon tetrachloride, chlorinated cleaning
solvents, ammonia and household
detergents that contain ammonia.
