UNPACKING AND CHECKING CONTENTS 

 
Your Baileigh machine is shipped complete. Separate all parts from the packing material and 
check each item carefully. Make certain all items are accounted for before discarding any 
packing material. 
 

 

 
 

Cleaning 

 

 

 

 

 
Your machine may be shipped with a rustproof waxy coating and/or grease on the exposed 
unpainted metal surfaces. Fully and completely remove this protective coating using a 
degreaser or solvent cleaner. Moving items will need to be moved along their travel path to 
allow for cleaning the entire surface. For a more thorough cleaning, some parts will occasionally 
have to be removed. 

DO NOT USE

 acetone or brake cleaner as they may damage painted 

surfaces. 
Follow manufacturer’s label instructions when using any type of cleaning product. After cleaning, 
wipe unpainted metal surfaces with a light coating of quality oil or grease for protection. 

 

Important: This waxy coating is NOT a lubricant and will cause the machine to 

stick and lose performance as the coating continues to dry.

 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 

WARNING: 

SUFFOCATION  HAZARD!  Immediately  discard  any  plastic 

bags and packing materials to eliminate choking and suffocation hazards to children 
and animals. 
If  any  parts  are  missing,  DO  NOT  place  the  machine  into  service  until  the  missing 
parts are obtained and installed correctly. 

WARNING:

 DO NOT USE gasoline or other petroleum products to clean 

the machine. They have low flash points and can explode or cause fire. 

CAUTION:

  When  using  cleaning  solvents  work  in  a  well-ventilated  area. 

Many cleaning solvents are toxic if inhaled.
