Maintenance - Genesis VS GMT16V Operator's Manual

Tips:
1. When removing strong, tacky adhesive, grease the
scraper blade surface to reduce gumming up.
2. Begin with light pressure. The oscillating motion of
accessory only occurs when pressure is applied to the
material to be removed.
3. If you are removing caulk from a delicate surface, such
as a bath tub or tile back splash, we recommend taping
to protect the surface that the blade will rest on.
GROUT REMOVAL (FIG 11)
use a grout removal blade (not included) to remove damaged
or cracked grout, or in order to replace a damaged or broken
tile.
To remove the grout, use a back and forth motion, making
several passes along the grout line. Be careful not to apply
too much side pressure on the grout blade. See FIG 12

CLEANING
Avoid using solvents when cleaning plastic parts. Most plastics are susceptible to damage from various
types of commercial solvents and may be damaged by their use. use clean cloths to remove dirt, dust,
oil, grease, etc.
WARNING:
based products, penetrating oils, etc., come in contact with plastic parts.
Chemicals can damage, weaken or destroy plastic which may result in serious
personal injury.
Electric tools used on fiberglass material, wallboard, spackling compounds, or plaster are subject
to accelerated wear and possible premature failure because the fiberglass chips and grindings are
highly abrasive to bearings, brushes, commutators, etc. Consequently, we do not recommended using
this tool for extended work on these types of materials. However, if you do work with any of these
materials, it is extremely important to clean the tool using compressed air.
