SEcTION 6: MAINTENANcE
For optimum performance from your machine,
follow this maintenance schedule and refer to any
specific instructions given in this section.
Daily check:
•
vacuum all dust on and around the
machine.
•
Wipe down tables and all other unpainted
cast iron with a metal protectant.
•
Worn or damaged wires.
•
any other unsafe condition.
Monthly check:
•
v-belt tension, damage, or wear.
•
Clean/vacuum dust buildup from inside cabi-
net and off motor.
Schedule
since all bearings are sealed and permanently
lubricated, simply leave them alone until they
need to be replaced. do not lubricate them.
the following components require periodic lubri-
cation. Be careful not to over-lubricate them.
large amounts of lubricant will attract sawdust,
causing the metal components to gum up and
bind.
figure 60. leadscrew lubrication location.
Leadscrew: lubricate the outfeed table leadscrew
with light machine oil as needed. see the location
shown in
figure 60 and part 41 on page 46. Wipe
off excess oil and sawdust with a cloth.
Lubrication
vacuum excess wood chips and sawdust, and
wipe off the remaining dust with a dry cloth—this
ensures moisture from wood dust does not remain
on bare metal surfaces. treat all unpainted cast
iron and steel with a non-staining lubricant after
cleaning. We recommend products like slipit
®
,
g96
®
gun treatment, or Boeshield
®
t-9 (see
page 32 for more details).
cleaning
To reduce risk of shock or
accidental startup, always
disconnect machine from
power before adjustments,
maintenance, or service.
