MAINTENANCE AND INSPECTION

WARNING:
1. Replacing the depressed center wheel
Replace the depressed center wheel when it has
been worn out to about 2-3/8" (60mm) in external
diameter. Confirm that there is no crack or any
damage to the depressed center wheel. If there is
a crack or a transformation in the wheel, replace it
immediately.
2. Check the Screws
Loose screws are dangerous. Regularly inspect
them and make sure they are tight.
CAUTION:
Using this power tool with loosened screws is
extremely dangerous.
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. Inspecting the carbon brushes (Fig. 9)
The motor employs carbon brushes which are
consumable parts. Since and excessively worn
carbon brush can result in motor trouble, replace
the carbon brush with new ones when it becomes
worn to or near the "wear limit". In addition,
always keep carbon brushes clean and ensure that
they slide freely within the brush holders.

5. Replacing carbon brushes
Take out the carbon brush by first removing the
brush cap and then hooking the protrusion of the
