disconnect machine from

maintenance, or service.
Cleaning &
Protecting
Cleaning the saw is relatively easy. Vacuum
excess wood 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.
Protect the unpainted cast iron table by wiping it
clean after every use—this ensures moisture from
wood dust does not remain on the bare metal
surface. Keep the table rust-free with regular
applications of products like G96
