Maintenance

Figure 14

Before any intervention on the machine, disconnect it from the electrical supply by pulling out the plug or switching off the main switch! Follow lockout/tagout procedures. Failure to comply may cause serious injury.

The anti-kickback fingers must hang down freely and operate independently by gravity. They should be inspected frequently and cleaned whenever necessary.

The table should be kept clean and free of rust or deposits.

The lead screws and posts beneath the table, and the drive chains, should be kept clean and oiled.

Periodically blow out saw dust from the motor’s cooling fan.
