14. MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING
Turn the machine off at the mains before performing
any operation.
• All maintenance work or repairs on the machine that
require the motor casing to be opened can only be carried
out by an authorised official service centre.
• Regularly check the state of the lead and the plug, and
change them if they are damaged using an authorised
official service.
• Always keep the air circulation windows on the casing
clean to ensure motor cooling.
• Clean the dust collector tube connection with the
plate cover so that it is not obstructed.
Changing brushes:
Brushes should be changed when they have a minimum
length of 6 mm.
• To inspect or replace brushes, turn off the machine at
the mains and place the machine on one side.
Remove the four screws (J, Fig. 11) on the left hand
side and one from the right hand side and take off the
rear covers (K, Fig. 11).
• Loosen the brush-holders and inspect or change the
brushes if necessary.
• It is advisable to allow the machine to run for a few
minutes with no load after changing the brushes.

16. NOISE AND VIBRATION LEVEL
The noise and vibration levels of this device have been
measured in accordance with European standard EN
60745-1 and serve as a basis for comparison with other
machines with similar applications.
The indicated vibration level has been determined for
the device's main applications and may be used as an
initial value for evaluating the risk presented by expo-
sure to vibrations. However, vibrations may reach levels
that are quite different from the declared value under
other application conditions, with other tools or with
insufficient maintenance of the electrical device or its
accessories, reaching a much higher value as a result
of the work cycle or the manner in which the electrical
device is used.
Therefore, it is necessary to establish safety measures
to protect the user from the effects of vibrations, such
as maintaining both the device and its tools in perfect
condition and organising the duration of work cycles
(such as operating times when the machine is subjected
to loads, and operating times when working with no-load,
in effect, not in use, as reducing the latter may have a
considerable effect upon the overall exposure value).
17. WARRANTY
All VIRUTEX power tools are guaranteed for 12 months
from the date of purchase, excluding any damage which
is a result of incorrect use or of natural wear and tear
on the machine. All repairs should be carried out by the
official VIRUTEX technical assistance service.
VIRUTEX reserves the right to modify its products wi-
thout prior notice.
