Cleaning the Model T25688 is relatively easy. Periodically wipe down the rollers to remove dust and debris—this ensures rust-promoting material does not remain on the bare metal surfaces.

Treat all unpainted metal surfaces with quality metal protectants like SLipit®, or Boeshield® T-9 (see previous page for offerings from Grizzly).
