MAINTENANCE
WARNING!
To reduce the risk of injury, always unplug your tool before performing any maintenance. Never disassemble the tool or try to do any rewiring on the tool's electrical system. Contact a MILWAUKEE service facility for ALL repairs.
Maintaining Tools
Keep your tool in good repair by adopting a regular maintenance pro- gram. Before use, examine the general condition of your tool. Inspect guards, switches, tool cord set and extension cord for damage. Check for loose screws, misalignment, binding of moving parts, improper mount- ing, broken parts and any other condition that may affect its safe opera- tion. If abnormal noise or vibration occurs, turn the tool off immediately and have the problem corrected before further use. Do not use a dam- aged tool. Tag damaged tools “DO NOT USE” until repaired (see “Repairs”).
Under normal conditions, relubrication is not necessary until the motor brushes need to be replaced. After six months to one year, depending on use, return your tool to the nearest MILWAUKEE service facility for the following:
•Lubrication
•Brush inspection and replacement
•Mechanical inspection and cleaning (gears, spindles, bearings, housing, etc.)
•Electrical inspection (switch, cord, armature, etc.)
•Testing to assure proper mechanical and electrical operation
ACCESSORIES
WARNING!
To reduce the risk of injury, always unplug the tool before attaching or removing accessories.
Use only specifically recommended accessories. Others may be hazardous.
For a complete listing of accessories refer to your MILWAUKEE Electric Tool catalog. To obtain a catalog, contact your local distributor or a service center listed on the back cover of this operator’s manual.
Cleaning
Clean dust and debris from vents. Keep the tool handles clean, dry and free of oil or grease. Use only mild soap and a damp cloth to clean your tool since certain cleaning agents and solvents are harmful to plastics and other insulated parts. Some of these include: gasoline, turpentine, lacquer thinner, paint thinner, chlorinated cleaning solvents, ammonia and household detergents containing ammonia. Never use flammable or combustible solvents around tools.
WARNING!
To reduce the risk of injury, electric shock and damage to the tool, never immerse your tool in liquid or allow a liquid to flow inside the tool.
Repairs
If your tool is damaged, return the entire tool to the nearest service center listed on the back cover of this operator’s manual.
