5.3. General Maintenance of Functioning Components
The general maintenance operations that should be carried out regularly are as follows:
1) Keep the area around the grinder free of any tools, loose parts, accumulated swarf & small offcuts by using
compressed air or preferably thread-free cloth.
2) When applicable, lightly lubricate the spindle shaft bearings with an NLGI 2 extreme pressure grease, Shell
Alvania No.1 grease or equivalent.
3) Check that the clamping nut & counter plate regularly to ensure it's in good condition. Do not over tighten
the nut & counter plate, as this will inadvertently exert tension on the spindle & grinding wheel.
4) Clean & lubricate any moving joints or sliding surfaces with good quality oil.
5) Clean the grinding machine regularly & keep any unpainted surfaces lightly oiled to protect from rust &
corrosion.
6) Check that the glass eye shield is in good condition & free of any damage. If a crack is present on the
surface of the glass, immediately replace the eye shield by contacting the
Brobo
Engineering Department.
