MAINTENANCE
WARNING:
Before inspecting, cleaning, or servicing the
machine, disconnect the plug from power source
and wait for all moving parts to stop. Failure to
follow these instructions can result in serious
personal injury or property damage.

GENERAL MAINTENANCE

Avoid using solvents when cleaning plastic parts. Most
plastics are susceptible to damage from various types of
commercial solvents and may be damaged by their use.
Use clean cloths to remove dirt, dust, oil, grease, etc.
WARNING:
Do not at any time let brake fluids, gasoline,
petroleum-based products, penetrating oils, etc.,
come in contact with plastic parts. Chemicals can
damage, weaken, or destroy plastic which may
result in serious personal injury.
WARNING:
Blades are sharp. When handling the blade
assembly, wear non-slip, heavy-duty protective
gloves. Do not place your hand or fingers
between blades or in any position where they
could get pinched or cut. NEVER touch blades or
service unit with the power supply connected.

BLADE MAINTENANCE

Always clean the cutting blades after operation and
■
lubricate as described later in this manual.
Perform regular visual checks/inspection on the
■
cutting edges of the blade and check the tightness of
the blade bolts.
