20. CHECK DAMAGED PARTS. Before further use
of the cleaner, a guard or other part that is
damaged should be carefully checked to deter-
mine that it will operate properly and perform
its intended function. Check for alignment of
moving parts, binding of moving parts, break-
age of parts, mounting, and any other condi-
tions that may affect its operation. A guard or
other part that is damaged should be properly
repaired or replaced by an authorized service
center unless otherwise indicated elsewhere
in this instruction manual. Have defective
switches replaced by authorized service cen-
ter. Don't use the cleaner if switch does not
turn it on and off.

mantled, cleaned and serviced, as far as is
reasonably practicable, without causing risk to
the maintenance staff and others.
22. The machine should be technically inspected
by the manufacturer, or an instructed person,
at least annually, consisting of, for example,
inspection of filters for damage, air tightness

tions, all contaminated items which cannot be

the manufacturer. A charger that is suitable for
one type of battery pack may create a risk of fire
when used with another battery pack.

objects, that can make a connection from one
terminal to another. Shorting the battery termi-
nals together may cause burns or a fire.

ejected from the battery; avoid contact. If con-
tact accidentally occurs, flush with water. If
liquid contacts eyes, additionally seek medical
help. Liquid ejected from the battery may cause
irritation or burns.

aged or modified. Damaged or modified batteries
may exhibit unpredictable behaviour resulting in
fire, explosion or risk of injury.

excessive temperature. Exposure to fire or tem-
perature above 130 °C may cause explosion.
