Cleaning
Clean dust and debris from vents. Keep handles clean,
dry and free of oil or grease. Use only mild soap and a
damp cloth to clean, since certain cleaning agents and
solvents are harmful to plastics and other insulated parts.
Some of these include gasoline, turpentine, lacquer
thinner, paint thinner, chlorinated cleaning solvents,
ammonia and household detergents containing am-
monia. Never use ammable or combustible solvents
around tools.
Repairs
For repairs, return the tool, battery pack and charger to
the nearest service center.
