Operation with wire wheel brush (optional
accessory) (Fig. 19)
CAUTION:
• Check operation of wire wheel brush by running tool
with no load, insuring that no one is in front of or in line
with the wire wheel brush.
• Do not use wire wheel brush that is damaged, or which
is out of balance. Use of damaged wire wheel brush
could increase potential for injury from contact with bro-
ken wires.
• ALWAYS use guard with wire wheel brushes, assuring
diameter of wheel fits inside guard. Wheel can shatter
during use and guard helps to reduce chances of per-
sonal injury.
Unplug tool and place it upside down allowing easy
access to spindle. Remove any accessories on spindle.
Thread wire wheel brush onto spindle and tighten with
the wrenches.
When using wire wheel brush, avoid applying too much
pressure which causes over bending of wires, leading to
premature breakage.
MAINTENANCE
CAUTION:
• Always be sure that the tool is switched off and
unplugged before attempting to perform inspection or
maintenance.
• Never use gasoline, benzine, thinner, alcohol or the
like. Discoloration, deformation or cracks may result.
The tool and its air vents have to be kept clean. Regularly
clean the tool's air vents or whenever the vents start to
become obstructed. (Fig. 20)
To maintain product SAFETY and RELIABILITY, repairs,
carbon brush inspection and replacement, any other
