Servicing and maintenance
Any maintenance or repair work that requires opening of the motor or gear housing should only be carried out by an authorised Customer Service Centre (name supplied by your dealer)! Maintenance or repair work carried out by an unauthorised person can lead to the wrong connection of the power leads or other com- ponents, which in turn can lead to accidents with serious consequences.
To prevent accidents, always remove the plug from the power supply socket before carrying out any mainte- nance or repair work on the machine! Do not use compressed air to clean the electri- cal tool! Do not try to clean parts inside the machine in this way, as you could let foreign objects in through the openings of the ma- chine housing.
Systainer
Many Festool products are shipped in a unique system container, called "Systainer". This pro- vides protection and storage for the tool and accessories. The Systainers are stackable and can be interlocked together. They also can be interlocked atop Festool CT dust extractors.
Certain cleaning agents and solvents are harmful to plastic parts.
Some of these are: gasoline, carbonyl chlo- ride, cleaning solutions containing chlorine, ammonia and household cleaners containing ammonia.
•To assure the circulation of air, the cool air vents in the motor housing must always be kept clear and clean.
