Cleaning & Protecting
Cleaning the Model SB1125 is relatively easy.
Vacuum excess metal or wood chips and wipe off
remaining dust with a dry cloth. If any resin has
built up, use a resin dissolving cleaner to remove
it.
Protect the unpainted cast-iron table and base
by wiping it clean after every use—this ensures
moisture from wood dust does not remain on bare
metal surfaces. Keep the table rust-free with
regular applications of products like SLIPIT® or
Boeshield® T-9 (see Figure 48 in Accessories).
Lubrication
Since all bearings on the Model SB1125 are
sealed and permanently lubricated, simply leave
them until they need to be replaced. DO NOT
lubricate them.
An essential part of lubrication if cleaning the
parts before lubricating them. This step is critical
because grime and chips build up on lubricated
components, which makes them hard to move.
Simply adding more lubricant will not result in
smooth moving parts.
Clean components before lubricating them with
recommended products like those in Figures
50–52 on Page 33.
