GENERAL MAINTENANCE

Avoid using solvents when cleaning plastic parts. Most plastics are susceptible to damage from various types of commercial solvents and may be damaged by their use. Use clean cloths to remove dirt, dust, oil, grease, etc.

A WARNING: Do not at any time let brake fluids, gasoline, petroleum-based products, penetrating oils, etc., come in contact with plastic parts.

Chemicals can damage, weaken, or destroy plastic which may result in serious personal injury.

[] Periodically check all clamps, nuts, bolts, and screws for tightness and condition. Make sure the throat plate is in good condition and in position.

[] Check the blade guard assembly.

[] To maintain the table surfaces, fence, and rails, periodically apply paste wax to them and buff to provide smooth functioning.

[] Protect the blade by cleaning out sawdust from underneath the table and in the blade teeth. Use a resin

solvent on the blade teeth.

[] Clean plastic parts only with a soft damp cloth. DO NOT use any aerosol or petroleum solvents.

LUBRICATION

All of the bearings in this tool are lubricated with a sufficient amount of high grade lubricant for the life of the unit under normal operating conditions. Therefore, no further lubrica- tion is required.
