Maintenance - DeWalt DW441 Instruction Manual

MAINTENANCE

WARNING: To reduce the risk of injury, turn unit off and
disconnect machine from power source before installing and
removing accessories, before adjusting or changing set-ups or
when making repairs. An accidental start-up can cause injury.
Lubrication
Self lubricating bearings are used in the tool and periodic relubrication
is not required. However, it is recommended that, once a year, you
take or send the tool to a service center for a thorough cleaning and
inspection.
Cleaning
WARNING: Never use solvents or other harsh chemicals for clean-
ing the non-metallic parts of the tool. These chemicals may weaken
the plastic materials used in these parts. Use a cloth dampened only
with water and mild soap. Never let any liquid get inside the tool; never
immerse any part of the tool into a liquid.
WARNING: Always use eye protection. All users and bystanders
must wear eye protection that conforms to ANSI Z87.1.
Keep your machine as clean as possible by wiping with a clean cloth
and blowing through it with air after every 5 hours of use. If you typi-
cally wrap the cord around the tool when you store it, leave a gener-
ous loop of cord such that the strain relief does not bend. This helps
prevent premature cord failure.
