MAINTENANCE

CAUTION:
• Always be sure that the tool is switched off and the
battery cartridge is removed before attempting to
perform inspection or maintenance.
• Never use gasoline, benzine, thinner, alcohol or the
like. Discoloration, deformation or cracks may result.
Cleaning
After use, remove wax, chips and dust from the tool,
wheel tires and blade.
CAUTION:
• Never use solvents such as turpentine, gasoline,
lacquer, etc. to clean plastic parts.
• Wax and chips on the tires may cause the blade to slip
and come off unexpectedly. Use a dry cloth to remove
wax and chips from the tires.
Replacing tires on wheels (Fig. 14)
When the blade slips or does not track properly because
of badly worn tires, or the lip of the tire on motor side gets
damaged, the tires should be replaced.
Replacing carbon brushes (Fig. 15)
Remove and check the carbon brushes regularly. Replace
when they wear down to the limit mark. Keep the carbon
brushes clean and free to slip in the holders. Both carbon
brushes should be replaced at the same time. Use only
identical carbon brushes.
Use a screwdriver to remove the brush holder caps. Take
out the worn carbon brushes, insert the new ones and
secure the brush holder caps. (Fig. 16)
To maintain product SAFETY and RELIABILITY, repairs,
any other maintenance or adjustment should be
performed by Makita Authorized Service Centers, always
using Makita replacement parts.
