MAINTENANCE AND INSPECTION

CAUTION:
Be sure to switch power OFF and disconnect the plug before and during maintenance and inspection.
1. Inspecting this demolition hammer
Since use of a dull accessory, such as a bull point, a cutter, etc., will cause motor
malfunctioning and efficiency degraded efficiently, whet it or replace with a new one
without delay when abrasion is noted.
2. Inspecting the mounting screws:
Regularly inspect all mounting screws and ensure that they are properly tightened.
Should any of the screws be loose, retighten them immediately. Failure to do so could
result in serious hazard.
3. Inspecting the retainer (Fig.2 and 3)
The retainer may become loose due to excessive use. Always, pay attention to its proper
functioning to securely hold the accessory shank portion. If any wear and tear is found,
bring this demolition hammer to an authorized service center for maintenance service.
4. Inspecting the carbon brushes: (Fig. 7)
