degrees.
6. MAINTENANCE
WARNING! Before attempting any maintenance ensure the unit is unplugged from the mains power supply.
‰
6.1.
Keep the machine clean and dry. Do not use abrasives or solvents to clean the unit. Ensure all external head screws are tight.
6.2.
Clean regularly by blowing a jet of compressed air through side vents to ensure motor ventilation is kept clear.
WARNING! Wear approved safety eye protection and, if necessary, respiratory protection.
‰
Note: The following maintenance must only be carried out by a technically qualified person or an authorised service agent.
6.3.
Check carbon brushes by removing brush cover on each side, see fig.1. Check to see if the brushes are worn or if cracked. If so, the
brush must be replaced to avoid sparking and damage to the armature. Use only genuine spare parts as these are specifically
designed for the machine. Failure to do so may be dangerous and will invalidate your warranty.
6.4.
After each 500 hours of use replace the gear head grease to prevent gear wear and possible drive failure.
6.5.
When not in use disconnect from mains supply and store in a safe, dry childproof location.
This tool may cause Hand Arm Vibration Syndrome if its use is not managed adequately.
This tool is subject to the vibration testing section of the Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC.
This tool is to be operated in accordance with these instructions.
Measured vibration emission value (a): . . . . . . . . . .8.16 m/s²
Uncertainty value (k):. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .1.5 m/s²
Please note that the application of the tool to a sole specialist task may produce a different average vibration emission. We recommend that a
specific evaluation of the vibration emission is conducted prior to commencing with a specialist task.
A health and safety assessment by the user (or employer) will need to be carried out to determine the suitable duration of use for each tool.
NB: Stated Vibration Emission values are type-test values and are intended to be typical.
Whilst in use, the actual value will vary considerably from and depend on many factors.
Such factors include; the operator, the task and the inserted tool or consumable.
NB: ensure that the length of leader hoses is sufficient to allow unrestricted use, as this also helps to reduce vibration.
The state of maintenance of the tool itself is also an important factor, a poorly maintained tool will also increase the risk of Hand Arm Vibration
Syndrome.
Health surveillance.
We recommend a programme of health surveillance to detect early symptoms of vibration injury so that management procedures can be modified
accordingly.
Personal protective equipment.
We are not aware of any personal protective equipment (PPE) that provides protection against vibration injury that may result from the
uncontrolled use of this tool. We recommend a sufficient supply of clothing (including gloves) to enable the operator to remain warm and dry and
maintain good blood circulation in fingers etc. Please note that the most effective protection is prevention, please refer to the Correct Use and
Maintenance section in these instructions. Guidance relating to the management of hand arm vibration can be found on the HSC website
www.hse.gov.uk - Hand-Arm Vibration at Work.
