8. Cleaning
Remove the battery pack from the machine before
making any adjustments, changing tools,
maintaining or cleaning.
Clean the dust filter regularly: remove and clean
with a jet of compressed air.
Remove the battery pack periodically and wipe the
contact area of the battery pack and machine with a
dry cloth and remove deposits. If the battery pack
cannot be removed: see the Repairs chapter.
Particles may become deposited inside the power
tool during operation. This impairs the cooling of the
power tool. Conductive build-up can impair the
protective insulation of the power tool and create an
electrical hazard.
The power tool should be cleaned regularly, often
and thoroughly through all front and rear air vents
using a vacuum cleaner or by blowing in dry air.
Prior to this operation, separate the power tool from
the power source and wear protective glasses and
a suitable dust mask. Ensure appropriate suction is
available when blowing out vents.
9. Troubleshooting
The electronic signal display (13) flashes
and the machine does not start.
The battery pack is empty; the temperature is
too high or the restart protection has triggered.
Switch the machine off and back on again.
The machine will not start if the battery pack is
inserted while the machine is on.
The electronic signal display (13) is
permanently on.
There has been an overload while working,
therefore the performance may be reduced
temporarily. Reduce working pressure.
Electronic safety shutdown: the machine has
SHUT DOWN by itself. If the slew rate of the
current is too high (for example, if the machine
suddenly seizes or kickback occurs), the machine
switches off. Switch off the machine. Switch it on
again and continue to work as normal. Try to
prevent the machine from seizing. See chapter 4.2.
10. Accessories
Use only original Metabo or CAS (Cordless Alliance
System) battery packs and accessories.
Use only accessories that fulfil the requirements
and specifications listed in these operating
instructions.
Fit accessories securely. If the machine is operated
in a holder: secure the machine well. Loss of control
can cause personal injury.
