Knowing how to clean and maintain your electrical devices effectively will extend the life of your tools and save you money from continually replacing them with new ones. In most cases, all it takes to clean power tools and remove rust are essential hand-cleaning items, some compressed air, and minimal effort.

When cleaning power tools, extra care must be taken to protect the motor housing and any open or exposed machinery parts, like cords. We recommend that you always have the user guide at hand. The use of a toothbrush or cotton swab is recommended for these areas. For the rest of the machine, using the swab and not putting it directly in the bucket is also essential. Just don’t immerse the power tool in any liquid, as this can cause damage to the motor and electrical parts.
