6. Maintenance
6.1
Maintenance
As with any precision machine, a small amount of time and trouble taken on routine
maintenance and cleaning will pay valuable dividends in terms of overall efficiency and
component life.
6.2
Lubrication
A small amount of light oil should be applied to the sliding and rotating surfaces of the
feed screws/slides and mounting bar assemblies and to the traverse chain as required, at
approximately 3 monthly intervals, depending on the work load of the machine.
6.3
Traverse Chain
The chain should be adjusted as required by adjusting the bolts where the chain ends
are attached to the machine chassis. The springs at these points should NOT be fully
compressed as they provide damping at the change in traverse direction.
6.4
Rails
Rails should be kept as clean as possible. Although the rear rail is cleaned by wipers
attached to the carriage cover, some dust/debris will still collect on this rail.
Wipe the rails down daily and spray with WD40 at the end of each day’s grinding.
NOTE 1:
Always wipe the rails before grinding as oil / WD 40 will cause grinding debris to
stick during operation.
NOTE 2:
The rolling action of the carriage bearings along the rails will eventually result
in the appearance of narrow “flats” on the rails where the gearings run. This is perfectly
normal and DOES NOT affect the accuracy of the machine (These narrow flats are
actually work-hardened areas).
