Cleaning and Maintenance
Before maintaining or cleaning the laser drill machine, switch off and unplug
from power mains. Never work on the machine while in operation.
After each use clean the machine thoroughly and lubricate moving parts
slightly. Clean the machine with a hand broom, a suitable chip removal hook
or with compressed air to remove dust, dirt, shavings or swarf. Do not remove
swarf with your hand.
Periodically lubricate the pinion (part no. 10) and the sleeve (part no. 23) in
order to ensure good lubrication.
To avoid corrosion, oil all blank parts of the laser drill machine from time to
time.
Keep drill bits etc. always sharp and clean for best performance. Preferably
store each drill bit separately.
Do not clean the surfaces with abrasive detergents or aggressive chemicals.
Make sure that moisture or liquids cannot enter the machine.
The bearings and the gears of the laser drill machine are maintenance-free
and do not require any lubrication.
Store the laser drill machine in a dry and dust free location.
