Cleaning &

Protecting

Use a brush and shop vacuum to remove chips and debris from the mill. Never blow off the mill with compressed air, as this will force metal chips deep into the mechanisms and may injure your- self or bystanders.

Wipe built-up grime from the mill with a rag and a mild solvent. Remove any rust from the unpainted cast iron surfaces of your mill, then treat them with regular applications of products such as Primrose Armor Plate Way Oil, G96® Gun Treatment, SLIPIT®, or Boeshield® T-9 (see Section 5: Accessories on Page 30 for more details).

Lubrication

Your mill has numerous moving metal-to-metal contacts that require proper lubrication to help ensure efficient and long-lasting mill operation.

Other than the lubrication points covered in this section, all other bearings are internally lubricated and sealed at the factory. Simply leave them alone unless they need to be replaced.

Before adding lubricant, clean debris and grime from the devices to avoid contaminating the new lubrication.

DISCONNECT MILL FROM POWER BEFORE PERFORMING LUBRICATION!
