When electric tools are used on fiberglass boats, sports
cars, wallboard, spacWing compounds, or plaster, it has
been found that they are subject to accelerated wear and
possible premature failure, as the fiberglass chips and
grindings are highly abrasive to bearings, brushes,
commutator, etc. Consequently, it is not recommended that
this toot be used for extended work on any fiberglass material,
wallboard, spackling compounds, or plaster. During any
use on fiberglass it is extremely important that the tool is
cleaned frequently by blowing with an air jet.
WARNING: ALWAYS WEAR SAFETY GOGGLES
OR SAFETY GLASSES WITH SIDE SHIELDS
DURING POV/ER TOOL OPERATION OR WHEN
BLOWING DUST, IF OPERATION IS DUSTY ALSO
WEAR A DUST MASK.
PROPER CARE OF COLLET
From time to time, it also becomes necessary to clean your
collet and collet nut. To do so, simply remove collet nut from
collet and clean the dust and chips that have collected. Then
return collet nut to its original position.
LUBRICATION
All of the bearings in this tool are lubricated with a sufficient
amount of high grade lubricant for the life of the unit under
normal operating conditions. Therefore, no further lubrica­
tion is required.
