Since all bearings are shielded and permanently
lubricated, simply leave them alone until they
need to be replaced. DO NOT lubricate them.
Lubricate the unpainted the work tables regu-
larly (Figure 25) to prevent rust and ensure a
smooth sliding action from the tool post holder
and the tailstock. Your goal is to achieve ade-
quate lubrication. However, too much lubrica-
tion will attract dirt and sawdust, which may
cause these components to lose their freedom of
movement.
Regularly clean your sanding belt as sawdust
builds up in the grit. Clean the sanding belt with
PRO STICK
®
belt cleaners as shown in Figure 26.
Cleaning out built up sawdust will prolong the
life of your sanding belt.
To ensure optimum performance from your
sander, make a habit of inspecting it before
each use. Check for the following conditions
and repair or replace when necessary:
• Loose mounting bolts.
• Worn switch.
• Worn or damaged cords and plugs.
• Any other condition that could hamper the
safe operation of this machine.
MAKE SURE that your
machine is unplugged
during any maintenance
procedures except
where instructed other-
wise! If this warning is
ignored, serious person-
al injury may occur.
