MAINTENANCE
Make sure that the machine is not live when car-
rying out maintenance work on the motor.
The Ferm machines have been designed to operate over
a long period of time with a minimum of maintenance.
Continuous satisfactory operation depends upon proper
machine care and regular cleaning.
Cleaning
Keep the ventilation slots of the machine clean to prevent
overheating of the motor.
Regularly clean the machine housing with a soft cloth,
preferably after each use. Keep the ventilation slots free
from dust and dirt.
If the dirt does not come off use a soft cloth moistened with
soapy water. Never use solvents such as petrol, alcohol,
ammonia water, etc. These solvents may damage the
plastic parts.
Lubrication
The machine requires no additional lubrication.
Faults
Should a fault occur, e.g. after wear of a part, please con-
tact your local Ferm dealer.
In the back of this manual you find an exploded view
showing the parts that can be ordered.

rials to the appropriate recycling locations.
