MAINTENANCE 
• Your tool has been designed to operate over a long period of time with 
a minimum of maintenance. Continuous satisfactory operation depends 
upon proper tool care and regular cleaning. 
• Regularly clean the ventilation slots in your tool using a soft dry brush or 
dry cloth. 
• Regularly clean the motor housing using a clean damp cloth. Do not use 
any abrasive or solvent-based cleaner. 
CHANGING THE CARBON BRUSHES 
Occasionally remove and inspect 
the motor brushes and replace if 
necessary.
When removing brushes, note which 
way round they are. The brushes must 
be returned exactly the same way.
Never allow the brushes to wear 
more than two thirds of their original 
length, (new brushes are 
approximately 13 mm long), fit new brushes when or before they are worn 
down to 5 mm.
VIBRATION 
The declared vibration emission values stated in the specifications have been 
measured in accordance with a standard test method provided by EN 60745 
and may be used for comparing one tool with another. The declared vibration 
emission value may also be used in a preliminary assessment of exposure. 
WARNING: BEFORE PERFORMING ANY MAINTENANCE, SWITCH OFF AND 
UNPLUG THE TOOL. 
WARNING: THE VIBRATION EMISSION VALUE DURING ACTUAL USE OF THE 
POWER TOOL CAN DIFFER FROM THE DECLARED VALUE DEPENDING ON 
THE WAYS IN WHICH THE TOOL IS USED. THE VIBRATION LEVEL MAY 
INCREASE ABOVE THE LEVEL STATED.
