INTERNAL CLEANING
It has bonn found that electdc tools are subjected to
accelerated wear and possible premature failure when
they are used on fiberglass boats and sportscars,
wallboard, spackling compounds orplaster. The chipsand
gdndings from these materials are highlyabrasive to
electric tool parts such as beadngs, brushes, commutaton_,
etc. Dudng any use on these materials itis extremely
important that the tool is cleaned frequently byblowing out
with a compressed airjet.
I_, DANGER ]
It Is critical that you wear safety goggles or safety
glasses with side shields and a dust mask while
blowing dust out of the cutting tool with a
compressed air jet. Failure to take these safety
precautions could result in permanent eye or lung
damage.
