MAINTENANCE & INSPECTION
Service
It is recommended that all service on your Freud tool be performed by an Authorized Freud service center. Service by unauthorized service personnel may result in misplaced or misassembled internal components resulting in risk of tool malfunction and personal injury to the tool user.
Tool Lubrication
All power tools require care and attention. Every second change of brushes, we recommend leaving the tool with an authorized Freud service center for a general cleaning and gear lubrication.
Bearings
We recommend that at every second change of brushes, the bearings be replaced by an authorized Freud service technician. Bearings that become very noisy should be replaced at once to avoid overheating or motor failure.
Brushes
Use only brushes that are specified for your Freud power tool. The brushes should be checked for wear every 200 hours of service.
Commutators
Commutators which have been scratched or warped through wear and tear must be replaced by an authorized Freud repair technician. Never file the commutator with emery paper.
Inspect Blades
Regularly inspect your jig saw blades to insure they are sharp. Dull blades will cause the tool to operate less efficiently and may cause the motor to malfunction.
Inspect Screws
Regularly inspect all screws in your power tool and make sure they are properly tightened. Loose screws should be retightened immediately.
