XII. Maintenance

Since the moving parts on this machine run on shielded ball bearings, you will find that there is very little in the line of routine mainte- nance outside of cleaning (See Section XI). However, “little maintenance” does not imply “no maintenance." This section will cover a few simple but crucial steps for the proper maintenance of your bandsaw.

A. Lubrication

Shielded and pre-lubricated ball bearings require no extra lubrication for the life of the bearings. All bearings are standard sizes. If they wear out, replacements can be easily purchased from our parts department or bear- ing supply stores.

As for other items on this machine, such as adjustment controls, an occasional “shot” of light oil is just about all that is necessary. Before applying, however, wipe off any debris with a clean cloth or towel and spray on the lubricant. Ensure that oil does not get on the pulleys or V-Belts because it could cause belt deterioration and slipping. Wipe off any spray that gets on the blade, meat grinder, or any stainless steel cutting surfaces.

B. Miscellaneous

Always be aware of the condition of your bandsaw before using it. Routinely check the condition of the following items and repair or replace as necessary.

1.Loose mounting bolts.

2.Worn switch.

3.Worn or damaged blade.

4.Worn or damaged support bearings or guide blocks.

5.Worn or damaged V-Belt.

6.Any other condition that may affect safe operation of this machine.
