your machine, and preserve your warranty claims
by always using original Festool accessories and
Festool consumable material!

7 Maintenance and care
Always remove the power supply plug
from the socket before carrying out any
work on the machine.
The cool air openings in the motor casing must
always be kept clean and unobstructed to ensure
air circulation.
All maintenance and repair work which requires
the motor casing to be opened may only be carried
out by an authorised service centre.
The tool is fi tted with special motor brushes with
an automatic cut-out. When the brushes become
worn the power supply is shut off automatically
and the tool comes to a standstill.
8 Disposal
Do not throw the power tool in your household
waste! Dispose of machines, accessories and pack-
aging at an environmentally-responsible recycling
centre. Observe the valid national regulations.
EU only: European Directive 2002/96/EC stipulate
that used electric power tools must be collected
separately and disposed of at an environmentally
responsible recycling centre.
9 Warranty
For our tools, we give warranty for material and
production defects in accordance with the locally
applicable legal provisions, but in any case for at
least 12 months. Within the EU member states, the
warranty period is 24 months (verifi cation through
invoice or delivery note). Damage caused by, in
particular, natural wear, overloading, incorrect
handling, or damage caused by the operator, or
damage caused through use of the equipment con-
trary that specifi ed in the Operating Instructions, or
damage which was known at the time of purchase,
is not covered by the warranty. Furthermore, dam-
age caused by the use of non-original accessories
and consumable materials (e.g. sanding pads) is
also excluded. Complaints can only be recognised
if the tool is returned while still assembled to the
supplier or an authorised Festool Customer Serv-
ice workshop. Keep the Operating Instructions,
Safety Instructions, Spare Parts List and purchase
receipt in a safe place. Otherwise the respective,
current warranty conditions of the manufacturer
shall apply.
