Maintenance
Your machine is time proven with good design, engineering and modern manufacturing practices.
You can service virtually anything on your machine yourself. There are no special tools, fixtures or
alignment jigs required to install the parts used in this key machine. Because Rytan manufacturers
the machines in-house you are assured a supply of new replacement parts and updates for as long as
YOU want us to make the machine’s.
Keep your machine clean and lubricated and it will remain a productive asset to your business for a
very long time.
Lubrication
You do not need to lubricate the motor or the cutter shaft bearings- these ball bearing assemblies are
sealed and lubricated for their lifetime.
Lubricate your machine as often as you like. Use number 30 non-detergent motor oil. Apply oil
with a brush to all black oxide processed steel surfaces. After applying the oil, let it stand overnight
and wipe the oiled parts dry the next day with a clean rag or soft paper towel. Turn the machine over
and lubricate the linkages that drive the carriage shaft left and right.
WARNING:
Do not turn the
machine over and set it on the Power Switch.
SUGGESTION:
When lubricating the “stick-shift’ drive linkages under the machine you might
want to use spray-on bicycle chain lubricant – the kind that foams and penetrates.
DO NOT
use this
on the rest of the machine.
Lubricate the vise jaw plungers inside the carriage – remove the key clamp knobs and large knurled
knobs and top vise jaws. Squirt some number 30 non-detergent motor oil in the large hold and
reassemble.
