IMPROPERLY MAINTAINED TOOLS CAN CAUSE SERIOUS INJURIES
Always make sure the tool is not loaded before performing any service or repair and
always wear safety goggles when cleaning or servicing the tool.
DAILY CLEANING
All front end parts shown in the disassembly section are to be cleaned daily with a good
detergent oil and wire brush. Remove all dirt and carbon buildup and wipe parts dry with
a clean rag. Check all parts for wear or damage before reassembly and replace or repair
any worn or damaged parts.
PERIODIC COMPLETE CLEANING / GENERAL MAINTENANCE
Heavy or constant exposure to dirt and debris may require that the tool be cleaned more
extensively. Complete disassembly and cleaning of all parts may be necessary to restore
the tool to normal operation. General maintenance should be performed every six months
or more often if the tool is subjected to heavy use. General maintenance/complete clean-
ing should be done by a quali ed repair person.
ALWAYS FUNCTION TEST THE TOOL AFTER PERFORMING ANY
SERVICE. SEE PAGE 9 FOR DETAILS ON THE FUNCTION TEST.
