MAINTENANCE
CAUTION:
• Always be sure that the tool is switched off before
attempting to perform inspection or maintenance.
Cleaning
NOTICE:
• Never use gasoline, benzine, thinner, alcohol or the
like. Discoloration, deformation or cracks may
result.
• Do not blow dust sticking on the cleaner and filters
by air duster. It brings dust into the housing and
causes failure.
• After washing filters, dry them thoroughly before
use. Insufficiently dried filters may cause poor suction
and shorten the service life of the motor.
• After cleaning filters and sponge filter, be sure to
re-install them before use. If you use the cleaner
without filters and sponge filter, dust comes into the
motor housing and cause malfunction.
