In order to 'get the best life' out of your Champion machine always keep it in good working order.
Several items must always be checked on Champion machines.
Always before starting any job make sure the machine is in good working order and that there are no damaged
or loose parts. Any loose parts must be tightened.
Before proceeding with any maintenance work be certain that the power supply is disconnected.

Visually check the machine for damage.
The machine must be checked before operation for any signs of damage that will affect the operation of the
machine. Particular notice must be taken to the mains cable, if the machine appears to be damaged it should
not be used, failure to do so may cause injury or death.
Check operation of the machine.
The machines operation must be checked to ensure that all components are working correctly.
Machine Brushes - should be checked to make sure there is no abnormal wear present (this should be
checked at least once a week if used frequently). If the brush has worn more than 2/3 the original length the
brushes should be changed. Failure to do so may cause damage to the machine.
Magnetic base – before every operation the magnetic base should be checked to make sure that the base is
flat and there is no damage present. An uneven magnet base will cause the magnet not to hold as efficiently
and may cause injury to the operator.
Check machines grease.
The gearbox grease should be checked once a month to ensure all moving components are covered to
prevent wear. The grease should be changed at least once a year to ensure you gain the best from your
machine.
Check Armature of the machine.
This should be checked at least once a month to check that there are no visual signs of damage to the body or
to the commutator. Some signs of wear will be seen on the commutator over a period of time, but this is normal
(this is the part that comes into contact with the brushes) however, if there are any signs of abnormal damage
the part should be replaced.
