Servicing and maintenance
WARNING
Risk of accident, electric shock
Any maintenance or repair work that requires
opening of the motor or gear housing should
only be carried out by an authorised Cus-
tomer Service Centre (name supplied by your
dealer)!
Maintenance or repair work carried out by an
unauthorised person can lead to the wrong
connection of the power leads or other com-
ponents, which in turn can lead to accidents
with serious consequences.
WARNING
Risk of accident, electric shock
To prevent accidents, always remove the plug
from the power supply socket before carrying
out any maintenance or repair work on the
machine!
Do not use compressed air to clean the elec-
trical tool!
Do not try to clean parts inside the machine
in this way, as you could let foreign objects in
through the openings of the machine hous-
ing.
CAUTION
Certain cleaning agents and solvents are harmful
to plastic parts.
Some of these are: gasoline, carbonyl chlo-
ride, cleaning solutions containing chlorine,
ammonia and household cleaners containing
ammonia.
Disposal
Do not throw the power tool in your household
waste! Dispose of machines, accessories and pack-
aging at an environmentally responsible recycling
centre. Observe the valid national regulations.
