Cleaning

WARNING: ALWAYS wear protective equipment including eye protection and gloves

• Keep your tool clean at all times. Dirt and dust will cause internal parts to wear

quickly, and shorten the device’s service life

• Clean the body of your machine with a soft brush, or dry cloth

mild detergent on a damp cloth is recommended

• If available, use clean, dry, compressed air to blow through the ventilation holes

(where applicable)

Brushes

the machine. Remove the worn brushes and replaced with new. Replace
brush access plugs. Alternatively, have the machine serviced at an authorised
Silverline service centre

Note: The brush access caps are located on the Rotating Barrel (5). The Handle
