Maintenance
CLEANING
Blowing dust and grit out of the motor housing using compressed air
is a necessary regular maintenance procedure. Dust and grit
containing metal particles often accumulate on interior surfaces and
could create an electrical shock hazard if not frequently cleaned out.
ALWAYS WEAR SAFETY GLASSES.
CAUTION: Never use solvents or other harsh chemicals for
cleaning the non-metallic parts of the tool. Use clean, dry rag only.
LUBRICATION
DeWALT tools are properly lubricated at the factory and are ready for
use. Tools should be relubricated regularly every sixty days to six
months, depending on usage. (Tools used constantly on production
or heavy-duty jobs and tools exposed to heat may require more
frequent lubrication.) This lubrication should only be attempted by
trained power tool repair persons, such as those at DeWALT service
centers or in other qualified service organizations.

Recommended accessories for use with your tool are available at
extra cost from your distributor or local service center.
Grinding wheels must fit within the confines of the guard and must be
