MAINTENANCE

Regular inspection reduces the necessity for maintenance
operations and will keep your tool in good working
condition. The tool bearings are life-long lubricated. The
motor must be correctly ventilated during tool operation.
For this reason avoid blocking the air inlets with hands.
After use, disconnect the tool from the power supply and
clean carefully.
7.1 DISPOSAL
At the end of the machine's working life, or when it can
no longer be repaired, ensure that it is disposed of

The brushes must be replaced after approx. 150-200
working hours, or if they are less then 5-6 mm in length.
In order to carry out replacement operations, proceed
as follows:
Unscrew the screws 1, remove the guard 2 and clean the
brush holder using a jet of dry compressed air (fig.4).
The edge of a spiral spring rests on the brushes, by raising
this spring the brushes can be extracted.
Remove the connectors from the brush holder using a
pair of pincers, raise the spiral spring, maintaining it in the
raised position. Extract the brush, holding it by the braided
connector and, with the spring raised, insert the new
brush, taking care that it is inserted in the correct direction
and that the braided connector slides into the slot.
Replace the spring on the brush head and then connect
the connectors to the brush holder.
Replace the guard and fully tighten the three screws.
Attention!
This operation should only be performed by an authorized
service center.
