MAINTENANCE AND INSPECTION

1. Cleaning the filter
CAUTION

䡬

Do not wash the filter in a washing machine.

䡬

Do not wash the filter in hot water or dry it by fire.

If the vacuuming efficiency is poor even when the
dust case has been emptied, remove the filter and
wash it in cold or warm water. (The water should not
be hot to the touch.)
After washing, dry out of direct sunlight.

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. Maintenance of the motor

The motor unit winding is the very “heart” of the
power tool.
Exercise due care to ensure the winding does not
become damaged and/or wet with oil or water.

4. Cleaning on the outside

When the coldless cleaner is stained, wipe with a soft
dry cloth or a cloth moistened with soapy water.
Do not use chloric solvents, gasoline or paint thinner,
for they melt plastics.

5. Storage

Store the coldless cleaner in a place in which the
temperature is less than 40°C and out of reach of
children.
