Maintenance
•
Always unplug the unit when cleaning.
•
We recommend after wet use to drain any remaining coolant: The debris from
glass and related materials has a tendency to harden. Rinse and dry the res-
ervoir and removable work surface.
•
After dry use empty or vacuum the reservoir of debris and then wipe down and
dry the reservoir and removable work surface.
•••••
Never
allow the yellow motor unit to get wet or immerse it in water. Use a
vacuum to remove any debris from the bottom air vents on the unit.
•
Always secure grinding heads to the flat side of the motor shaft. Failure to do
so can scar the shaft and prevent head removal. If some burrs or nicks have
formed, polish up the motor shaft. Remove all heads and hold a piece of 0000
(or finer) steel wool up to the motor shaft while the unit is running. Work down
the imperfections and then wipe the shaft clean and apply a thin coating of
Inland MotorShaft Lubricant (stock #50028) or petroleum jelly.
•
Removing grinding heads after use will prevent them from seizing.
•
Check the power cord periodically for cuts or damage.
•
Check all coolant lines and tubes to see that they are not clogged.
