Maintenance
WARNING: For your own safety,
turn switch "OFF" and remove plug
from power source outlet before
maintaining or lubricating your
lathe.
Apply a coat of automobile-type wax to
the lathe bed to help the tool rest and tail-
stock move freely.
Have power cord replaced if it becomes
worn or frayed.
Lubrication
Periodically lubricate the ram in
the tailstock with No. 20 or No. 30
engine oil.
Motor Maintenance And Lubrication
1. The bearings, in both end shields of the
motor, have been lubricated at the fac-
tory with correct lubricant. No other part
of the motor requires lubrication.
2. If disassembly of the motor is neces-
sary, it should be returned to your near-
est RIDGID Service Center retail store
in order to prevent voiding the guaran-
tee.
NOTE: The speed of this motor cannot
be regulated or changed.
