Service and maintenance
WARNING
Risk of accident, electric shock
Always pull the plug out of the socket be-
fore performing any type of work on the ma-
chine.
All maintenance and repair work which re-
quires the housing to be opened must only
be carried out by an authorised service work-
shop.
To ensure constant air circulation, always keep
the ventilation openings clean and free of block-
ages.
The machine is equipped with self-disconnecting
special carbon brushes. If they are worn, power is
interrupted automatically and the machine comes
to a standstill (see Chapter "Electronics").

Disposal
Do not throw the power tool in your household
waste! Dispose of the machine, accessories and
packaging at an environmentally-responsible
recycling centre! Observe the valid national regu-
lations.
EU only: European Directive 2002/96/EC stipulate
that used electric power tools must be collected
separately and disposed of at an environmentally
responsible recycling centre.
11
Accessories
Use only original Festool accessories and Festool
consumable material intended for this machine
because these components are designed specifi -
cally for the machine. Using accessories and con-
sumable material from other suppliers will most
likely affect the quality of your working results
and limit any warranty claims.
16
Machine wear or your own personal workload may
increase depending on the application. Protect
yourself and your machine, and preserve your
warranty claims by always using original Festool
accessories and Festool consumable material!
The order numbers of the accessories and tools
can be found in the Festool catalogue or on the
Internet under "www.festool.com".

Warranty
For our tools, we give warranty for material and
production defects in accordance with the locally
applicable legal provisions, but in any case for at
least 12 months. Within the EU member states,
the warranty period is 24 months (verifi cation
through invoice or delivery note). Damage caused
by the operator, natural wear, overloading, incor-
rect handling or through the use of the equipment
not specifi ed in the operating manual, or damage
which was known at the time of purchase, is not
covered by the warranty. Furthermore, damage
caused by the use of non-original Festool acces-
sories and consumable material (e.g. sanding
pads) is also excluded. Complaints can only be
recognised if the tool is returned while still as-
sembled to the supplier or an authorised Festool
Customer Service workshop. Keep the operating
manual, safety instructions, spare parts list and
purchase receipt in a safe place. Otherwise the
respective, current warranty conditions of the
manufacturer shall apply.
