Schedule
Vacuum excess wood chips and sawdust, and
wipe off the remaining dust with a dry cloth—this
ensures moisture from wood dust does not remain
on bare metal surfaces. Treat all unpainted cast
iron and steel with a non-staining lubricant after
cleaning. We recommend products like SLIPIT

,
G96
®
Gun Treatment, or Boeshield
®
T-9 (see

Cleaning
V-Belts
V-belt removal and replacement involves remov-
ing the V-belts, rolling them off of the pulleys,
replacing them with new belts, then retensioning
them.
Always replace V-belts as a set, or belt tension
may not be even among the belts and may cause
premature belt failure.
Consider replacing stock belts with Power Twist
V-belts (see
Page 32) to reduce vibration and
noise, and increase belt lifespan.
To adjust/replace belts the V-belts:
1. DISCONNECT THE JOINTER/PLANER
FROM THE POWER SOURCE!
2. Remove the four hex bolts securing the V-
belt cover (see
Figure 46).
3. Remove the fence and fence bracket, then
remove the motor access cover and belt ten
-
sion knob (
Figure 46).
