Maintenance - Wen 23101 Instruction Manual

WARNING! Disconnect the rotary tool from the power supply before carrying out any adjustments, service
or maintenance.
IMPORTANT! Servicing of the tool requires extreme care and knowledge and should be performed only by
a qualified service technician.
CLEANING AND INSPECTION
1. Always clean the tool and accessories after each use. Use a clean
cloth and a soft brush to clean your tool.
2. Never use water or other liquids to clean the electrical portions of
the tool.
3. Ensure that the ventilation slots are not blocked to prevent over-
heating.
4. Check the tools and accessories for any damage. Remove and dis-
pose of damaged accessories.
CARBON BRUSHES INSPECTION AND REPLACEMENT
To maintain efficiency of the motor, inspect the two carbon brushes
routinely. The wear on the carbon brushes depends on how frequently
and how heavily the tool is used. Replace the brushes when the brush
length gets down to 3/16 of an inch or when the tool stops working.
Replacement carbon brushes (Model 23103-009) can be ordered at
wenproducts.com.
1. Switch off and disconnect the tool from the power supply.
2. The carbon brush caps are located on the top and bottom of the
rotary tool (Fig. 6 - 1). To access the brushes, unscrew and remove
the two brush caps using the end of the wrench included with your
tool kit.
3. Take out and inspect the carbon brushes (Fig. 7). If the brushes
are worn to under 3/16 inch in length, replace them with new carbon
brushes and reinstall the brush caps.
NOTE: Always keep carbon brushes clean and ensure that they slide
freely in the brush holders. Both carbon brushes should be replaced
at the same time.
