MAINTENANCE
CAUTION: Always be sure that the tool is
switched off and unplugged before attempting to
perform inspection or maintenance.
CAUTION:
Clean out the guard to ensure there is
no accumulated sawdust and chips which may impede the
operation of the guarding system. A dirty guarding system may
limit the proper operation which could result in serious personal
injury. The most effective way to accomplish this cleaning is with
compressed air. If the dust is being blown out of the guard, be
sure the proper eye and breathing protection is used.
NOTICE:
Never use gasoline, benzine, thinner, alcohol
or the like. Discoloration, deformation or cracks may result.
