11 CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
Before performing any work on the equipment, pull the power plug.
11.1
Cleaning
▪
Keep the ventilation slots of the machine clean to prevent overheating of the engine.
▪
Regularly clean the machine housing with a soft cloth, preferably after each use.
▪
Keep the ventilation slots free from dust and dirt.
▪
If the dirt does not come off use a soft cloth moistened with soapy water.
▪
Never use solvents such as petrol, alcohol, ammonia water, etc. These solvents may
damage the plastic parts.
Make sure no water can reach the inside of the power tool!
11.2
Lubrication
All motor bearings are permanently lubricated at the factory, and do not require any additional
lubrication. Use graphite or silicone to lubricate all mechanical parts of the table saw where a
pivot or threaded rod is present. Dry lubricants do not hold sawdust like oil or grease.
