4. Maintenance
Notwithstanding the maintenance described below, it is recommended to send
in the power tool to an authorised REMS contract customer service workshop
for inspection and periodic testing of electrical devices at least once a year. In
Germany, such periodic testing of electrical devices should be performed in
accordance with DIN VDE 0701-0702 and also prescribed for mobile electrical
equipment according to the accident prevention rules DGUV, regulation 3
"Electrical Systems and Equipment". In addition, the respective national safety
provisions, rules and regulations valid for the application site must be considered
and observed.
4.1. Maintenance
WARNING WARNING
Pull out the mains plug or remove the battery before repair work!
The REMS reciprocating saws are maintenance-free. The gear runs in a life-
long grease fi lling and therefore needs no lubrication. Keep the saw blade
holder clean. Remove chips from the housing of the saw blade holder. Remove
water/moisture from the housing of the saw blade holder after every use. Lightly
lubricate the saw blade holder and saw blade clamping lever (14) with machine
