Z_ WARNING:
To avoid accidents, ALWAYS disconnect the tool from
the power source BEFORE cleaning or performing any maintenance.
All parts represent an important part of the double insulation system and
should be serviced only at a Sears Service Center.
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,
carbon dust, etc.
WARNING: DO NOT
at any time let brake fluids, gasoline,
petroleum-based products, penetrating oils, etc. to come in contact
with plastic parts. They contain chemicals that can damage, weaken
or destroy plastic.
It is a known fact that electric tools are subject to accelerated wear and
possible premature failure when they are used to work on fiber glass
boats and sports cars, wallboard, spackling compounds or plaster. The
chips and grindings from these materials are highly abrasive to electrical
tool parts, such as bearings, brushes, commutators, etc. Consequently,
it is not recommended that this tool be used for extended work on any
fiber glass material, wallboard, spackling compound, or plaster.
During any use on these materials, it is extremely important that the tool
is cleaned frequently by blowing with an air jet.
LUBRICATION
All of the bearings in this tool are lubricated with a sufficientamount of
high-grade lubricant for the life of the tool under normal operating conditions.
Therefore, no further lubrication is required.
I Z WARNING:
ALWAYS wear safety goggles or safety glasses with
or side shields when using this tool or blowing dust. If operation is dusty,
also wear a dust mask.
DOUBLE INSULATION
Double insulation is a concept in safety in electric power tools, which
eliminates the need for the standard 3-wire grounded power cord. All
exposed metal parts are isolated from the internal motor components with
protecting insulation. Double insulated tools do not need to be grounded.
IMPORTANT
The servicing of a tool with double insulation requires extreme care and
knowledge of the system and should be performed only by a qualified service
technician. For service, we recommend that you return the tool to your nearest
Sears Service Center for repair. ALWAYS use identical replacement
parts when servicing.
