SECTION 7: MAINTENANCE

Disconnect power to the machine when perform- ing any adjustments or maintenance. Failure to do this may result in seri- ous personal injury.

General

Make a habit of inspecting your sander each time you use it. Check for the following conditions and repair or replace when necessary.

1.Loose mounting bolts.

2.Worn switch.

3.Worn or damaged cords and plugs.

4.Worn or damaged V-belt.

5.Poor belt tensioning ⁄ tracking.

Table

The working table and other non-painted sur- faces on the Model G1013 should be protected against rust and pitting. Wiping the sander clean after every use ensures that sawdust is not allowed to trap moisture against bare metal sur- faces.

Tables can be kept rust-free with regular applica- tions of products like Boeshield® T-9. For long term storage you may want to consider products like Kleen Bore's Rust Guardit™.

Lubrication

Your combination sander is equipped with shield- ed and pre-lubricated ball bearings that require no lubrication for the life of the bearings. All bear- ings are common sizes and are readily available from a local bearing supply house or our Service Department. The roller shafts, however, will ben- efit from regular applications of light machine oil.
