Maintenance and troubleshooting
All tools and machines require regular maintenance, and the shaper is no
exception. This section details the general maintenance and care of your
machine. In general we recommend that you only use a Teflon-based
lubricant on the machine. Regular oil attracts dust and dirt, and the Teflon
tends to dry and has fewer tendencies to accumulate dirt and sawdust on
your machine.
Weekly maintanince
1.
Check that all nuts and bolts are tight
2. Clean the machine and check that the dust hose is clear. Make sure
that all moving parts are clean and free from saw dust and dirt.
3. Lubricate all moving parts with a Teflon-based lubricant.
4. Wax the table and all non-painted parts.
5. Check the drive belt for damage, oil, dirt and cracks.
6. Check that the breaking system on the motor stops the electrical
motor in less than 10 seconds.
Note: You can only function the break a maximum of 10 times per hour.
Drive belt
The drive belt should last a long time [depending on the usage] but needs to
be inspected regularly for cracks, cuts and general wear. If damage is found,
replace the belt.
Bearings
All bearings are sealed for life and do not require any maintenance. If a
bearing becomes faulty, replace it.
Rust
The table saw is made from steel and cast iron. All non-painted surfaces will
rust if not protected. It is recommended that the table be coated with wax.
All moving non-painted surfaces should be lubricated
protected with a Teflon-based lubricant.
