MAINTENANCE
Lubrication
Since all bearings are sealed and permanently
lubricated, simply leave them alone until they
need to be replaced. Do not lubricate them.
For other items on this machine, an occasional
application of light machine oil is all that is
necessary. Before applying lubricant, wipe the
machine clean.
Your goal is to achieve adequate lubrication.
Too much lubrication will attract dirt and
sawdust. Various parts of your machine could
lose their freedom of movement as a result.
Regular periodic maintenance on your Model
W1708 will ensure its optimum performance.
Make a habit of inspecting your sander each
time you use it. Check for the following
conditions and repair or replace when
necessary.
1. Loose mounting bolts.
2. Worn switch.
3. Worn or damaged cords and plugs.
4. Damaged sanding disc.
5. Any other condition that could hamper the
safe operation of this machine.
General
Table
Tables can be kept rust-free with regular

Disconnect power to the
machine when performing
any maintenance, assembly
or adjustments. Failure to do
this may result in serious
personal injury.
