LUBRICATION

All of the bearings in this tool are lubricated with a sufficient
amount of high grade lubricant for the life of the unit under
normal operating conditions. After extended use, clean the
rails so the table will slide smoothly.
CLEANING THE RAILS

rollers from sliding smoothly. It is important to clean the
rails often.
