Cleaning & Protecting
Cleaning the Model SB1119/SB1120 is relatively
easy. Vacuum excess wood chips and sawdust,
and wipe off the remaining dust with a dry
cloth. Blow out any hard-to-reach areas with
compressed air, and keep the spindle clear of
wood dust and chips. 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 bare metal
surfaces. Keep the table rust-free with regular
applications of products like SLIPIT® or
Boeshield® T-9.
