Operating And Maintenance Notes; Cleaning And Care - Solo 879-14 Gebrauchsanweisung Und Originalbetriebsanleitung

Maintenance and repairs of state-of-the-art power tools and their safety-relevant assemblies require
qualified specialist training and a workshop equipped with special tools and test devices.
Recommendation: Have all work not described in these operating instructions and all work you are not
comfortable with be performed by a specialist workshop authorised by us. The specialist has the required
training, experience and equipment and can make the most cost-efficient solution available to you. He will
advise and support you.
Observe the safety provisions for any maintenance work!
After a run-in time of approx. 5 operating hours, all screws and nuts that can be
reached (except for carburettor adjustment screws) must be checked for tight fit and
tightened again if required.
It is best to keep the power tool in a dry and safe site with a full fuel tank.
There must not be any open sources of fire or the like nearby.
Before extended storage (> 4 weeks), observe the notes in chap. 8.11, on page 38.
8.1

Cleaning and care

The power tool must be cleaned thoroughly after every use and checked for damage; in particular the
cooling air openings in the starter housing must be clean and free.
Inside the wheel guard, material deposits will form over time (in particular when wet cutting), which may
impair free rotation of the cut-off wheel.
Only use the environmentally compatible cleaning agents offered by specialist vendors for cleaning. Never
use fuel to clean!
x Disassemble cut-off wheel and outer mounting flange. Î Chap. 5.3, page 17
x Remove material deposits inside the wheel guard with a wood bar or similar.
x Clean spindle and all disassembled parts and check them for damage.
x Clean cut-off wheel and check it for damage. If any damage is found, dispose of the cut-off wheel
properly and immediately so that it is not reused in the next work deployment.
x Inspect the wheel guard for damage. If damaged, replace the wheel guard by an undamaged wheel
guard before using the power tool and dispose of the damaged wheel guard properly and immediately.
x Install outer mounting flange, any other parts and cut-off wheel again. Î Chap. 5.1, page 16
