GENERAL
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.
/!X 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 e_ectric 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 too] are lubricated
with a sufficient
amount of
high-grade
lubricant
for the life of the tool under normal operating
conditions.
Therefore,
no further lubrication
is required.
I
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.
