Lubrication
Since all bearings are sealed and permanently lubricated,
simply leave them alone until they need to be replaced.
Do not lubricate them. However, periodically oil the lock
lever and T-handle threads to ensure free operation.
Wipe down the adjustment arm with a thin film of oil
as required to prevent surface rust, but not enough to
attract dirt.
•
Frequently blow-off sawdust with compressed air.
This is especially important for the internal working
parts and motor. Dust build-up around the motor is a
sure way to decrease its life span.
•
If the wheels become loaded up with pitch, oil, or
other residues, wipe them clean using a clean rag
and a mild solvent. Avoid touching the plastic or
paint with mineral spirits or you may damage the
surfaces.
