11. Maintenance
Risk of injury:
Carefully read the section "For your
safety" ( 4.), particularly the
subsection "Maintenance and
repairs" ( 4.7), and follow all
safety instructions exactly before
performing any maintenance or
cleaning operations on the
machine.
Disconnect the mains plug before
performing any maintenance
operations.

11.1 Cleaning the machine

Maintenance interval:
After each use
Clean the machine thoroughly each time it
has been used. Care of the machine will
protect it against damage and extend its
service life.
The machine may only be cleaned in the
position shown.
Never spray water onto
motor components, seals,
bearing points or electrical
parts such as switches. This
would result in expensive
repairs.
If you are unable to remove
the dirt and accumulated
deposits with a brush, a damp
cloth or a stick, VIKING
recommends the use of a
special cleaner (e.g. STIHL
special cleaner).
Do not use aggressive cleaning agents.
