CLEANING
Regular cleaning of the saw is an essential part
of maintenance. Failure to clean the saw will
result in inaccurate cuts, worn parts, reduced
blade life and costly repairs.
The main electrical disconnect
switch must always be turned
to the "Off" position and
locked before adjusting,
servicing or cleaning the saw.
Failure to do so can result in
serious injury or death.
The band wheels, blade guides, blade wipers,
vise jaw faces, saw table, chip brush and vise
ratchets should be kept as free of chips as
possible. Chips that accumulate on these parts
will cause wear and reduce the quality and
accuracy of the cut.
Do not use compressed air to
clean the machine. Flying
debris can cause serious
injury.
Avoid damaging the saw.
Clean the operator's panel
only with ammonia free
household cleaners. Do not use
benzene, toluene, ketone or
esters.
