Maintenance

Clean the tool with a rag dampened with clean water. Do not use
chemicals or soap. Do not allow water to get inside the tool.
Make sure the vent passages remain clear of dust and debris to avoid
overheating the tool. Use thebrush supplied with your kit.
Clean the collet nut by tapping it against a hard surface to remove
accumulated debris.
Store the tool in a clean dry place.
All repairs must be performed by a qualified electrician.
Opening the tool voids the warranty (except for the brush replacement
procedure described below).

Brush Replacement

Brushes need replacing
when your tool begins
running sporadically, loses
power, or runs at a lower
speed. Do not use the tool
with worn brushes as you
could cause permanent
damage. To change the
brushes:
1 Unplug the tool.
2 Remove the brush
caps with a small
screwdriver. The brush
spring and brush will
slide out.
3 If the brush is less than
1/8" long, rough, and/or pitted, it must be replaced. Replace the brushes
with Nikota brushes, which are available from your Nikota dealer or
directly from Nikota.
4 When replacing brushes, be sure that the curved end is touching the
commutator and that the curvature is in line with the commutator
curvature. The brush should be resting on the commutator with no gaps.
5 Once the brush is in position, reinsert the spring and reattach the cap.
6 Run the tool at full no-load speed for 5 minutes to seat the brushes.
