# Maintenance and Cleaning

- Clean the air vents on your power tool regularly. The motor’s fan will draw the dust inside the housing and excessive accumulation of powdered metal may cause electrical hazards.

- Clean the tool holder (1) and locking sleeve (2) from time to time.

- Before carrying out any work on the power tool (e.g. maintenance, tool change etc.), remove the battery from the power tool. There is risk of injury from unintentionally pressing the on/off switch.

- To ensure safe and efficient operation, always keep the power tool and the ventilation slots clean.
