MAINTENANCE

CAUTION:
Always be sure that the tool is switched
off and the battery cartridge is removed before attempt-
ing to perform inspection or maintenance.
CAUTION:
Clean out the upper and lower guards
to ensure there is no accumulated metal chips which
may impede the operation of the lower guarding sys-
tem. A dirty guarding system may limit the proper opera-

guards, wear a proper eye and breathing protection.
