Regular maintenance keeps motors cooler, extends brush life, and reduces unexpected downtime. These simple routines can add months of service life to your most-used tools.
Daily habits
- Blow out vents after dusty work.
- Wipe down housings and switches.
- Check cords and plugs before storage.
Weekly checks
- Inspect brushes for wear and replace before they shorten too far.
- Look for loose screws, handles, and guards.
- Listen for grinding or rattling that signals bearing wear.
Monthly or quarterly service
- Clean the tool deeper and remove packed dust.
- Check bearings and gear lubrication.
- Replace worn accessories early to reduce motor strain.
Storage tips
- Store tools in a dry, covered area.
- Avoid stacking heavy tools on power cords.
- Keep blades and bits organized to prevent damage.
Train the crew
Most tool damage comes from forcing cuts, running dull accessories, or ignoring warning signs. A short refresher on correct use pays off quickly.
