MAINTENANCE
WARNING:
DO NOT DISASSEMBLE.
This tool should be serviced by a qualified technician only. Incorrect reassembly can
result in electric shock, fire, or further damage to the tool.
Always keep the grinder clean
Dust and grit containing particles from metal grinding often accumulate on interior surfaces
and could create an electrical shock hazard if not frequently cleaned out. On a regular basis,
blow dust and grit out of the motor housing using compressed air. Never blow compressed air
at greater than 10 PSI. Always wear goggles and dust mask when using compressed air.
CAUTION:
Never use solvents or other harsh chemicals for cleaning the non-metallic parts of the tool. Use a
clean, dry rag only.
