LUBRICATmON AND MAINTENANCE

1.The sleeve bearings, in both end shields of the motor, have been lubricated at the factory with correct lubricant. No other part of the motor requires lubrication,

2.Re-lubricate motor bearings in accordance with the instructions on the nameplate. Be sure to wipe off dirt or grit if present around oil hole caps to prevent any possibility of foreign material

contaminating the oil wicks that supply the bearings with oil. Use a good grade of medium

weight mineral oil, such asautomobileengine oil, SAE 2(3.

3.If disassembly of the motor is necessary, it should be returned to your nearest Sears retail or mail- order store jn order to prevent voiding the

g ua rantee.

NOTE: The speed of this motor canno_ be regulated or changed.

4.Every effort should be made to prevent foreign material from entering the motor. When operated under conditions likely to permit accumulations of dust. dirt, or waste within the motor, a visual

inspection should be made at frequent intervals. Accumulations of dry dust can usually be blown out successfully.

NOTE: Motors used on wood-working tools are

;)articularly susceptible to the accumulation of sawdust and wood chips and should be blown out or "vacuumed" frequently to prevent interference with normal motor ventilation and proper

operation of the centrifugally-operated starting switch.

A coat of automobile-type wax applied to the table will help to keep the surface clean and allow workpieces to slide more freely.

If the power cord is worn or cut, or damaged in any.i j way, have it replaced immediately.
