Maintenance - Ryobi CFS1501 Operator's Manual

WARNING:
When servicing, use only identical replacement parts.
Use of any other parts may create a hazard or cause
product damage.
WARNING:
Always wear safety goggles or safety glasses with side
shields during power tool operation or when blowing
dust. If operation is dusty, also wear a dust mask.
GENERAL MAINTENANCE
Avoid using solvents when cleaning plastic parts. Most
plastics are susceptible to damage from various types of
commercial solvents and may be damaged by their use. Use
clean cloths to remove dirt, dust, oil, grease, etc.
WARNING:
Do not at any time let brake fluids, gasoline, petroleum
based products, penetrating oils, etc., come in contact
with plastic parts. Chemicals can damage, weaken, or
destroy plastic which may result in serious personal
injury.
Electric tools used on fiberglass material, wallboard, spackling
compounds, or plaster are subject to accelerated wear and
possible premature failure because the fiberglass chips
and grindings are highly abrasive to bearings, brushes,
commutators, etc. Consequently, we do not recommend using
this product for extended work on these types of materials.
However, if you do work with any of these materials, it is
extremely important to clean the product using compressed
air.

LUBRICATION
All of the bearings in this product 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.
CLEANING THE SCRUBBING PADS
To ensure longer life and optimum performance, periodically
clean all sanding residue and foreign materials from the
scrubbing pads. This can be done simply by rinsing the pad
with warm water until all foreign material has been washed
away. After cleaning, gently squeeze the pad to remove
excess water and allow pad to dry. Always store pads and
sandpaper flat in a cool dry location.
CLEANING THE SANDPAPER
The sandpaper that came with the sander is made to be re-
used. Therefore, it is important that it be cleaned periodically
to remove sanding residue and foreign material that can
accumulate over time.
To clean sandpaper, rub the sheets with a hard rubber
block.
Always remove scrubbing pad or sandpaper from sander
before cleaning. Failure to do so could cause serious
personal injury.
