SECTION 6: MAINTENANCE
Always disconnect power
to the machine before
performing maintenance.
Failure to do this may
result in serious person-
al injury.
Schedule
For optimum performance from your machine,
follow this maintenance schedule and refer to any
specific instructions given in this section.
Daily
•
Vacuum all dust on and around the
machine.
•
Wipe down tables and all other unpainted
cast iron with a metal protectant.
Monthly Check
•
V-belt tension, damage, or wear.
•
Clean/vacuum dust buildup from inside cabi-
net and off of motor.
V-Belt
To ensure optimum power transmission from the
motor to the blade, the V-belt must be in good
condition (free from cracks, fraying and wear)
and properly aligned and tensioned (refer to the
instructions on Page 14).

Cleaning
Cleaning the Model G0604 is relatively easy.
Vacuum excess wood chips and sawdust, and
wipe off the remaining 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 moisture from wood dust does not
remain on bare metal surfaces.
Keep tables rust-free with regular applications of
products like G96

Lubrication
Since all bearings are sealed and permanently
lubricated, simply leave them alone until they
need to be replaced. DO NOT lubricate them.
