Don't use the grinder if any part is damaged. When it comes to maintenance, clean the grinder regularly to remove dust and debris. Check the brushes periodically and replace them when they're worn out. Also, make sure the lock nut and other parts are tightened properly before each use. Store the grinder in a dry place to prevent rust and damage.
