Lubrication
The bearings are sealed and pre-lubricated and
require no lubrication during their usable life.
However, your saw components will operate
at their best if the bearing surfaces are kept
clean—this is especially important for the trunnion
bearings.
Lubricate the areas indicated below every 6-12
months, depending on frequency of use.
Sliding table ways. Spray or wipe on a light
machine oil or lubricant (such as Boeshield
T9
®
) along the entire length of the steel rods
(see Figure 74).
Blade height and tilt worm gears. Lubricate
with an automotive wheel bearing grease
(see Figure 75).
