V-Belts
Cleaning the Model W1755 is relatively easy. Vacuum
excess wood chips and sawdust, and wipe off the remain

ing dust with a dry cloth. If any resin has built up, use a
resin dissolving cleaner to remove it.
Protect the unpainted cast iron surfaces on the table by
wiping the table clean after every use—this ensures mois-
ture from wood dust does not remain on bare metal sur
-
faces.
Keep tables rust-free with regular applications of a quality
metal protectant.
