Cleaning &

Protecting

Cleaning the Model T10727 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).

Lubrication

Lubricating the Model T10727 Slip Roll consists of periodically (depending upon usage) apply- ing grease to the roller gears and oil to the roller bushings.

Roller Gears

Lift the gear guard cover and apply a dab of white lithium grease to the upper roller gear (see Figure 25). Rotate the hand crank several times in both directions to distribute the grease to both gears, then wipe away any excess and close the cover.
