MAINTENANCE
KEEP TOOL CLEAN
Periodically blow out all air passages with dry compressed air. Remove wax
and chip buildup from pulley tires and blade guides. All plastic parts should be
cleaned with a soft damp cloth. NEVER use solvents to clean plastic parts.
They could possibly dissolve or otherwise damage the material.
CAUTION: Wear safety glasses while using compressed air.
FAILURE TO START
Should your tool fail to start, check to make sure the prongs on the cord plug
are making good contact in the outlet. Also, check for blown fuses or open
circuit breakers in the line.
BRUSH INSPECTION AND LUBRICATION
For your continued safety and electrical protection, brush inspection and
replacement on this tool should ONLY be performed by an AUTHORIZED
PORTER-CABLE SERVICE STATION or a PORTER-CABLE/DELTA FACTORY
SERVICE CENTER.
At approximately 100 hours of use, take or send your tool to your nearest
authorized Porter-Cable Service Station to be thoroughly cleaned and
inspected. Have worn parts replaced and lubricate with fresh lubricant. Have
new brushes installed, and test the tool for performance.
Any loss of power before the above maintenance check may indicate the need
for immediate servicing of your tool. DO NOT CONTINUE TO OPERATE TOOL
UNDER THIS CONDITION. If proper operating voltage is present, return your
tool to the service station for immediate service.
