Maintenance

WARNING: ALWAYS disconnect from the power supply before
carrying out any inspection, maintenance or cleaning.
General inspection
• Regularly check that all the fixing screws are tight
• Inspect the supply cord of the tool, prior to each use, for damage or
wear. Repairs should be carried out by an authorised GMC service
centre. This advice also applies to extension cords used with this
tool
Cleaning
• Keep your tool clean at all times. Dirt and dust will cause internal
parts to wear quickly, and shorten the machine's service life.
Clean the body of your machine with a soft brush, or dry cloth.
If available, use clean, dry, compressed air to blow through the
ventilation holes
• Clean the tool casing with a soft damp cloth using a mild detergent.

rests of material off the accessory. Wear appropriate protection
equipment whilst cleaning, including eye, hand and breathing
protection

according to regulations. Recycle where possible. Only use non-
water solvents where absolutely necessary and always follow the
manufacturer's guidelines for safe usage.
Lubrication
• Slightly lubricate all moving parts at regular intervals with a suitable
spray lubricant
Brushes

with new. Replace Brush Access Plugs. Alternatively, have the
machine serviced at an authorised GMC service centre
