that it can be used for a long period without replacing
the grease. Replace the grease whenever you change
the carbon brush to maintain the service life.
Further use of the rotary hammer with lock off grease
will cause the machine to seize up reduce the service life.
CAUTION
A special grease is used with this machine, therefore,
the normal performance of the machine may be badly
affected by use of other grease. Please be sure to let
one of our service agents undertake replacement of
the grease.
