Maintenance And
Servicing
Procedures not specifically explained in this manual must be performed only by a qualified technician.
To prevent serious injury
from accidental operation:
Turn the Power Switch (11) off and unplug the Polisher from its electrical outlet before performing any inspection, maintenance, or cleaning procedures.
To prevent serious injury from tool failure:
Do not use damaged equipment. If abnormal noise or vibration occurs, have the problem corrected before further use.
Inspection, Maintenance, and
Cleaning
1.BEFORE EACH USE, inspect the general condition of the Polisher. Check for loose screws, misalignment or binding of moving parts, cracked or broken parts, damaged electrical wiring, and any other condition that may affect its safe operation.
2.After Use, clean external surfaces of the tool with clean cloth. Do not immerse any part of the tool in liquid. Remove the Bonnet (52, 53) from the tool when not in use. This will allow the Bonnet to dry and retain its original shape. The Bonnets may be machine- washed in cold water with detergent.

3.Carbon Brush Maintenance:
IMPORTANT: Cleaning or replacing the Carbon Brushes (19) should only be done by a qualified service technician.
a.The Carbon Brushes (19) may require maintenance when the motor performance of the tool decreases or stops working completely. To maintain the Brushes:
b.First remove Right and Left Handles
(2,9).
c.Remove the two Carbon Brushes (19) from the housing. Keep track of which orientation the old Carbon Brushes were in to prevent needless wear if they will be reinstalled.
d.If either Carbon Brush (19) is worn down by more than 1/2, replace both Carbon Crushes.
e.To clean old Carbon Brushes (19) before reusing them, rub the contact areas with a pencil eraser.
f.Reinsert the old Carbon Brushes (19) in the same orientation to reduce wear.
g.When installing the Carbon Brushes (19), make sure the carbon portions of the Carbon Brushes contact the Motor Armature, and that the Springs face away from the Motor. Also, make sure the Springs operate freely.
Note: New Carbon Brushes (19) tend to spark when first used until they wear and conform to the Motor’s Armature.
