SECTION 7: MAINTENANCE
General
Regular periodic maintenance on your Model
G1023 Series will ensure its optimum perfor-
mance. Make a habit of inspecting your machine
each time you use it. Check for the following con-
ditions and repair or replace when necessary:
1. Guard alignment and operation.
2. Worn switch.
3. Worn or damaged cords and plugs.
4. Damaged V-belt.
5. Loose mounting bolts.
6. Inspect blades for damage.
7. Any other condition that could hamper the
safe operation of this machine.
Tables
The nonpainted surfaces on the Model G1023
Series should be protected against rust and pit-
ting. Wiping the machine clean after every use
ensures that wood dust is not allowed to trap
moisture against bare metal surfaces.
Tables can be kept rust-free with regular applica-
tions of products like Boeshield
term storage you may want to consider products
like Kleen Bore's Rust Guardit™.

V-Belt
To ensure optimum power transmission from the
motor to the blade, the V-belts must be in good
condition and operate under the proper tension.
When replacing V-belts, replace all three at the
same time —even if they do not all appear worn.
Belt tension should be checked at least every 3
months; more often if using the table saw inten-
sively.
The V-belts are accessed through the cavity on
the right side of the saw. They link the arbor and
motor pulleys. To check V-belt tension:
1.
With moderate pressure, push the center of
each V-belt.
2.
Note the amount of deflection. Deflection
should be approximately
41.

ing any maintenance or
