7. Cleaning and maintenance 
HAZARD!
Always take the battery out of the equipment 
before starting any cleaning work.
7.1 Cleaning
• 
 Keep all safety devices, air vents and the 
motor housing free of dirt and dust as far as 
possible. Wipe the equipment with a clean 
cloth or blow it down with compressed air at 
low pressure.
• 
 We recommend cleaning the equipment 
immediately each time after use.
• 
 Clean the equipment regularly with a damp 
cloth and some soft soap. Do not use 
cleaning agents or solvents; these may 
be aggressive to the plastic parts in the 
equipment. Ensure that no water can get into 
the interior of the equipment. The ingress of 
water into an electric power tool increases the 
risk of an electric shock.
7.2 Maintenance
There are no other parts inside the equipment 
which require maintenance.
