CLEANING
Cleaning the machine is relatively easy. Vacuum clean excess metal chips
and sawdust, and wipe off the remaining dust with a dry cloth. If any resin has
built up, use a resin dissolving cleaner to remove it. Treat all unpainted cast
iron and steel with a non-staining lubricant after cleaning.
LUBRICATION
An essential part of lubrication is cleaning the components before lubricating
them. This step is critical because grime and chips build up on lubricated
components over time, which makes them hard to move.
Clean all exterior components in this section with mineral spirits, shop rags and
brushes before lubricating.
VICE LEADSCREW
•
Lube Type: ISO 68 equivalent oil

TO LUBRICATE VICE LEADSCREW
1. Disconnect the machine from the power supply.
2. Using the vice hand wheel, move the vice as far froward as possible.
3. Use mineral spirits and a brush to
clean existing grease and debris
off of the vice leadscrew, and
allow to dry.
4. Apply thin coat of machine oil to
exposed leadscrew threads, then
move the vice through its full
range of motion several times to
disperse the oil along the full
length of the leadscrew.
