Occasionally use a cloth to wipe off chips
and dust from the machine. And oil the
rotary parts once a month to extend the tool
life. Do not oil the motor.
Check the motor brushes after the rst
50 hours of use for a new machine or after
a new set of brushes have been installed.
After the rst check, examine them every
10 hours of use.
When the carbon is worn to 6 mm in length
or if the spring or shunt wire is burned
or damaged, replace both brushes. If
the brushes are found serviceable after
removing, reinstall them.
