MAINTENANCE

CAUTION:

 

Always be sure that the tool is 

switched off and unplugged before attempting to 

perform inspection or maintenance.

NOTICE:

 

Never use gasoline, benzine, thinner, 

alcohol or the like. Discoloration, deformation or 

cracks may result.

Dressing diamond wheel

If the cutting action of the diamond wheel begins to 

diminish, use an old discarded coarse grit bench grinder 

wheel or concrete block to dress the diamond wheel. To 

do this, tightly secure the bench grinder wheel or con-

crete block and cut in it.

After use

Clean the dust inside of the tool by running the tool at 

an idle for a while. Brush off accumulation of dust on the 

base. Accumulation of dust in the motor or on the base 

may cause a malfunction of the tool.

Replacing carbon brushes

Check the carbon brushes regularly.

Replace them when they wear down to the limit mark. 

Keep the carbon brushes clean and free to slip in the 

holders. Both carbon brushes should be replaced at the 

same time. Use only identical carbon brushes.
