MAINTENANCE
WARNING: When servicing, use only identical
Ryobi replacement parts. Use of any other part
may create a hazard or cause product damage.
GENERAL
Avoid using solvents when cleaning plastic parts. Most plas-
tics are susceptible to damage from various types of commer-
cial solvents and may be damaged by their use. Use clean
cloths to remove dirt, carbon dust, etc.
It has been found that electric tools are subject to accelerated
wear and possible premature failure when they are used on
fibreglass boats, sports cars, wallboard, spackling compounds,
or plaster. The chips and grindings from these material are
highly abrasive to electric tool parts such as bearings, brushes,
commutators, ets. Consequently, it is not recommended that
this tool be used for extended work on any fibreglass material,
wallboard, spackling compounds, or plaster. During any use
on these materials it is extremely importsanat that the tool is
cleaned frequently by blowing with an air jet.
LUBRICATION
All of the bearings in this tool are lubricated with a sufficient
amount of high grade lubricant for the life of the unit under
normal operating conditions. Therefore, no further lubrication
is required.
EXTENSION CORDS
The use of any extension cord will cause some loss of power.
To keep power loss to a minimum and to prevent tool
overheating, use an extension cord that is heavy enough to
carry the current the tool will draw. A wire gauge size (A.W.G.)
of at least 16 is recommended for an extension cord 50 feet or
less in length . When working outdoors, use an extension cord
that is suitable for outdoor use.
WARNING: Do not at any time let brake fluids,
gasoline, pletroleum based products, penetrat-
ing oils, etc. come into contact with plastic parts.
They contain chemicals that can damage,
weaken or destroy plastic.
WARNING: Keep extension cords away from
the cutting area and position the cord so that it
will not get caught on timber, tools, etc. during
cutting operation.
WARNING: Check extension cords before each
use. If damaged, replace immediately. Never
use tool with a damaged cord since touching
the damagd area could cause electrical shock
resulting in serious injury.
WARNING: Always wear safety goggles or
safety glasses with side shields during power
tool operation or when blowing dust. If opera-
tion is dusty, also wear a dust mask.
If the supply cord is damaged, it shall be replaced by the au-
thorized Ryobi service centre in order ot avoid a hazard.
Disconnect form the supply immediately, if the suply cable is
damaged.
Take care not to expose this tool to rain.
Due to Ryobi’s continued product refinement policy, prod-
uct features and specifications can and will change with-
out notice. Check current features and specifications with
your Ryobi’s retailer.
