Model W1829 (Mfg. Since 9/11)

MAINTENANCE

General

Regular periodic maintenance on your machine will ensure its optimum performance. Make a habit of inspecting your machine each time you use it.

Check for the following conditions and repair or replace when necessary:

Loose mounting bolts.

Worn switch.

Worn or damaged cords and plugs.

Damaged V-belt.

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

Cleaning

Frequently blow-off sawdust and chips with compressed air. This is especially important for the internal working parts and motor. Dust build-up around the motor is a sure way to decrease its life span.

Table & Base

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

V-Belts

To ensure optimum power transmission from the motor to the blade, the V-belt must be in good condition (free from cracks, fraying and wear) and properly aligned and tensioned (refer to V-Belt Replacement on Page 36).

Make sure that your machine is unplugged during all maintenance pro- cedures! If this warning is ignored, seri- ous personal injury may occur.

Lubrication

Since all bearings are sealed and permanently lubricated, simply leave them alone until they need to be replaced. Do not lubricate them.
