ABLE PARTS INSIDE.
Preventive maintenance performed by
un au thorized personnel may result in
misplacing of internal wires and
components which could cause serious
hazard. We recom mend that all tool
service be performed by a Dremel
Service Center. SERVICE MEN:
Disconnect tool and/or power adapter
from power source before servicing.
Batteries
Be alert for battery packs that are
nearing their end of life. If you notice
decreased tool performance or
significantly shorter running time
between charges then the battery
should be replaced. The battery may
only be replaced at the Dremel Service
Center, by a qualified service person.
Failure to do so can cause the tool to
operate improperly or damage the
power adapter.
Cleaning
Certain cleaning
agents and solvents
damage plastic parts. Some of these
are: gasoline, car bon tetrachloride,
chlorinated cleaning solvents, ammonia
and household detergents that contain
ammonia.
Ventilation openings and switch levers
must be kept clean and free of foreign
matter. Do not attempt to clean by
inserting pointed objects through
opening.
Maintenance
If an extension cord
is necessary, a cord
with adequate size conductors that is
capable of carrying the current
necessary for your tool must be used.
This will prevent excessive voltage drop,
loss of power or overheating. Grounded
tools must use 3-wire extension cords
that have 3-prong plugs and receptacles.
NOTE: The smaller the gauge number,
the heav i er the cord.
