sure that it will operate properly and perform its in-
tended function. Check for alignment of moving
parts, mounting and any other con di tions that may
affect its operation. A guard or other part that is dam-
aged should be properly replaced.
All repairs, electrical or mechanical,
should be attempted only by
trained repairmen. Contact the nearest Bosch
Factory Service Center, Authorized Service Station
or other competent repair service.
Use only Bosch replacement parts;
any others may create a hazard.
