Maintenance of the machine
All
maintenance and cleaning work may only be carried out with the main switch set to “O”. The
machine must have been switched off from the mains.
In order to guarantee the life of your machine and also to optimize the quality of your delivered work,
we strongly recommend cleaning the machine once a week and remove all dust and chips that have
accumulated on different parts of the machine.
Especially the carriage must be well maintained. To do this, slide the trolley to the rear and carefully
blow all dust and dirt from between the two profiles and ball cage. Afterwards the steel carriages of the
car must be lubricated with a simple lubricant in spray such as WD40 or other means.
All ball bearings used in the machine are dust-tight and require no lubrication.
Remove any resin deposits on the machine and regularly lubricate the steel axle of the parallel fence.
Caution: when using solvents, be very careful about the risk of fire. !! Do not smoke and keep
the products away from heat sources !!
