Cleaning

Cleaning the Model G0513/G0514 is relatively easy. Vacuum excess wood chips and sawdust, and wipe off the remaining dust with a dry cloth. If any resin has built up, use a resin dissolving cleaner to remove it. Treat all unpainted cast iron and steel with a non-staining lubricant after clean- ing.

Unpainted Cast Iron

Protect the unpainted cast iron surfaces on the table by wiping the table clean after every use— this ensures moisture from wood dust does not remain on bare metal surfaces.

Keep tables rust-free with regular applications of products like G96® Gun Treatment, SLIPIT®, or Boeshield® T-9 (see Section 5: Accessories on Page 36 for more details).

Wheel Brush

The bandsaw is equipped with lower wheel brush- es. The brushes should be checked daily and cleaned when it becomes dirty. Each brush has an adjustment bracket that allows it to be adjusted for bristle wear. Refer to Adjusting Wheel Brush on Page 46 for adjustment details.
