MAINTENANCE AND INSPECTION
1. Inspecting the tool
Since use of as dull tool will degrade effi ciency and cause
possible motor malfunction, sharpen or replace the tool
as soon as abrasion is noted.
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. Cleaning on the outside
When the driver drill 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.
4. Storage
Store the driver drill in a place in which the temperature is
less than 40°C and out of reach of children.
