Cleaning

Cleaning the Model G0460/G0461 is relatively easy. Vacuum excess wood chips and sawdust, and wipe off the remaining dust with a dry cloth.

Use compressed air to blow dust from between the two sections of the sliding table. If any resin has built up, use a resin dissolving cleaner to remove it.

Never use water to clean the machine. Unpainted cast iron or other metal parts will quickly rust.

Treat all unpainted cast iron and steel with a non- staining lubricant or metal protectant 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 39 for more details).
