MAINTENANCE
Cleaning
WARNING: Blow dust and grit out of the motor housing regularly
using clean, dry compressed air. 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. These chemicals
may weaken the plastic materials used in these parts. Use a
clean, dry cloth only.
Lubrication
D
WALT tools are properly lubricated at the factory and are ready
E
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 D
ice centers or by other qualified service personnel.
Motor Brushes
When brushes become worn, the tool will automatically stop and
prevent damage to the motor. Brush replacement should be per-
formed by D
