Maintenance
WARNING: THE INTERNAL CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE WORK SHOULD
ONLY BE UNDERTAKEN BY COMPETENT PERSONS WITH EXPERIENCE OF
Service and Repair
REPAIRING DOMESTIC ELECTRICAL APPLIANCES AND IN FULL KNOWLEDGE
OF THE POSSIBLE HAZARDS INVOLVED.
To ensure the appliance operates efficiently, the following maintenance should be
undertaken periodically. The cover should be removed and refitted as detailed under
'Procedure'.
Fan Blades: These should be cleaned by using the soft brush
attachment of a vacuum cleaner. Care should be taken not to
damage the blades.
Filter: The filter (see 'C' - Fig. 4) can be removed completely for cleaning, but generally
provided this is cleaned frequently as detailed above, this should not be necessary.
Where removal of filter is required for cleaning, the filter retaining wires (see 'A' - Fig.
4) can be removed, allowing the mesh (see 'B' - Fig. 4) and the filter to be taken out .
General:With the cover removed, opportunity should be taken to remove any
accumulations of dust from within the unit.
Bearings: Fan and motor bearings should be given one or two (not more) drops of
low viscosity oil (e.g. sewing machine oil) approximately every 12 months.
