IMPORTANT: The tool has been coated with a protective coating.
In order to ensure proper fit and operation the coating must be
removed. Remove coating with mild solvents such as mineral spir-
its and a soft cloth. Nonflam mable solvents are recommended.
After cleaning, cover all exposed surfaces with a light coating of oil.
Paste wax is recommended for table top.
CAUTION:
Never use highly volatile solvents. Avoid getting clean-
ing solution on paint as it may tend to deteriorate these finishes.
Use soap and water on painted components.
