Use a commercially available brush to remove metal cuttings. Attempting to use a vacuum cleaner to take
up metal cuttings may cause fire in the vacuum cleaner.
Do not use a pneumatic blower to clean. Cutting dust may be hazardous to health. Breakdown of the ma-
chine may also occur.
Switch off the machine and unplug the power cord from the electrical outlet before performing cleaning
or maintenance. Failure to do so may result in injury or electrical shock.
