Every 120 Hours of Operation:

Lubricate longitudinal power feed gearing (Page 39).

Empty/clean/refill coolant reservoir (Page 40).

Check/tension high range drive belt (Page 42).

Note: This maintenance schedule is based on average usage. Adjust the maintenance schedule to match your usage to keep your mill running smoothly and to protect your investment.

Cleaning and

Protecting

Use a brush and shop vacuum to remove chips and debris from the mill. Never blow off the mill with compressed air, as this will force metal chips deep into the mechanisms and may injure your- self or bystanders.

Clean debris and grime from the coolant return screens on the base of the machine and the fluid slots in the table.

Wipe built-up grime from the mill—use a light application of solvent or mineral spirits if neces- sary. Remove any rust build-up from the unpaint- ed cast iron surfaces of your mill, and treat them with regular applications of products like G96® Gun Treatment, SLIPIT®, or Boeshield® T-9 (see Section 5: Accessories on Page 35 for more details).
