MAINTENANCE

General

To ensure optimum performance from your sander, make a habit of inspecting it before each use. Check for the following conditions and repair or replace when necessary:

•Loose mounting bolts.

•Worn switch.

•Worn or damaged cords and plugs.

•Any other condition that could hamper the safe operation of this machine.

Table And Base

Tables can be kept rust-free with regular appli- cations of products like SLIPIT®. For long term storage you may want to consider products like Boeshield T-9™.

Sanding Surfaces

Regularly clean your sanding belt and disc as sawdust builds up in the grit. Clean the sanding belts and discs with PRO STICK® belt cleaners as shown in Figure 27. Cleaning built-up saw- dust will prolong the life of your sanding belts and discs.

MAKE SURE that your machine is unplugged during any maintenance procedures except where instructed other- wise! If this warning is ignored, serious per- sonal injury may occur.
