Maintenance and Service
Maintenance and Cleaning
Pull the plug out of the socket before carrying out any
u
work on the power tool.
To ensure safe and efficient operation, always keep
u
the power tool and the ventilation slots clean.
In order to avoid safety hazards, if the power supply cord
needs to be replaced, this must be done by Bosch or by an
after-sales service centre that is authorised to repair Bosch
power tools.
Thoroughly clean the individual parts of the fine-spray
u
system after each use, especially all paint-carrying
components. Proper cleaning is a prerequisite for fault-
less and safe operation of the spray gun. No warranty
claims will be accepted if cleaning has not been done at
all or has not been done properly.
