Maintenance
Use only mild soap and damp cloth to clean the tool. Never let any liquid get inside the tool;
never immerse any part of the tool into a liquid.
IMPORTANT: To assure product SAFETY and RELIABILITY, repairs, maintenance and
adjustment should be performed by authorized service centers or other qualified service
organizations, always using identical replacement parts
CARE OF THE TABLE TOP
Protect your investment. Keep your table saw clean. If you notice signs of rust, steel wool the areas,
clean with mineral spirits or denatured alcohol and apply paste wax.
MAINTAINING FENCE SYSTEM
Your fence should always slide freely. If it seems to require excessive force to slide or if it feels
rough, wipe the rails and fence head gliding surface with a cloth or paper towel. Check the
movement again. If it still feels rough, clean the fence head with a mild solvent such as dena-
tured alcohol or mineral spirits. Re-coat the rail with a heavy coat of paste wax or a light oil.
Slide the fence head back and forth several times to coat the rail and fence. Wipe off any
excess wax or oil from the rail. If fence still does not move freely, refer to rip fence adjust-
ment section.
LUBRICATION
First clean off any accumulated sawdust from the gears and the worms with a stiff brush.
Next, remove any pitch or resin which has built up. You may need to use a solvent such as
mineral spirits to remove it. Next, re-apply grease to the gears marked with arrows in Figure
30. You can also apply paste wax to the gears if you find that the grease is attracting too much
sawdust. NOTE: Keep all spray lubricants away from upper guard.
Over time, the lubricants used in the mechanism of your table saw may need to be
replenished.
