Southbend SB1044 instruction sheet Operation, To use the cutting fluid system

Operation

Only use high quality water-soluble cutting fluid in this system. Never attempt to pump straight cutting oils or kerosene. If you do, the higher viscosity of the oil will overload the motor, causing damage, or flammable liquids may ignite.

Following the cutting fluid manufacturer’s guidelines, check and maintain the specific gravity of the cutting fluid to its required level. Change the fluid when it becomes overly dirty, rancid, or contaminated.
