SECTION 6: MAINTENANCE
Always disconnect power
to the machine before
performing maintenance.
Failure to do this may
result in serious person-
al injury.
Cleaning the Model G3616/G3617 is relatively
easy. Vacuum excess metal chips from the table
and ways, and wipe off the remaining waste with
a dry cloth. If any coolant is left on the table, wipe
it up with a rag. Treat all unpainted cast iron and
steel with a non-staining lubricant after cleaning.
Cleaning
Protect the unpainted cast iron surfaces by wiping
them clean after every use—this ensures mois-
ture does not remain on bare metal surfaces.
Keep exposed cast iron rust-free with regular
applications of products like G96
®
Gun Treatment,
SLIPIT
®
, or Boeshield
®
T-9.
