Section 7: Maintenance; Cleaning; Lubrication - Grizzly T32540 Owner's Manual

SECTION 7: MAINTENANCE

Always DISCONNECT
before servicing,
doing maintenance to reduce risk of
accidental injury or electrocution.
For optimum performance from this tool,
routinely check the condition of the following
items and repair or replace as necessary.
• Loose bolts
• Damaged bits
• Worn or damaged wires
• Any other unsafe condition

Cleaning

Use a brush and a shop vacuum to remove
wood chips and other debris from the
tool, particularly from around the drill bit
holders. Never blow off the tool with com-
pressed air, as this could force wood chips
deeper into the motor vents. Use a clean
cloth to wipe away any dust remaining
after each operation.
Note: DO NOT use caustic cleaners on
plastic parts. If dry cleaning is insufficient,
a mild detergent on a damp cloth is recom-
mended. Keep dripping or running water
away from tool at all times.

Lubrication

Periodically lubricate all moving parts with
a light machine oil, such as Model T28500
3-In-One Dry Lube (see Figure 26), as
required.
Figure 26. Model T28500 WD-40
3-In-One Dry Lube.
Place a drop of oil on the return spring
on the right side of the sliding base (see
Figure 27), then slide the base back and
forth, working the oil across the return
spring. Use a clean rag to wipe off any
excess oil, which can collect dust or stain
the workpiece.
