PROTECTING
CAST IRON TABLE
FROM
RUST
To clean and maintain the unpainted cast iron surfaces:
• Apply a heavy coat of WD-40 onto the unpainted cast
iron surface.
Use a fine steel wool pad to buff the unpainted cast
iron. Make sure to buff in a "front to rear" direction
only. A side-to-side buffing motion will show in the
finely ground cast iron as a flaw, defect or scratches.
Reapply WD-40 and buff the unpainted cast iron
surfaces until the stain is removed. Make sure you
use the same front-to-rear
buffing direction to avoid
scratching or marring the cast iron surface.
• After all stains and/or rust have been removed,
clean all oil and dirt from the table saw using a soft
cloth or rag.
Lastly, you need to apply a good automotive paste
wax to all unpainted cast iron surfaces. This will help
to protect the saw from rusting from further contact
with moisture or oily hands.
LUBRICATION
The Mortiser has sealed lubricated bearings in the
motor housing that do not require any additional
lubrication from the operator.
• Fence guide and elevation screws should be cleaned
of debris and greased as needed.
• Occasionally apply a few drops of light machine oil to
gibs to keep tables free in relation to base.
MAKE CERTAIN to turn the power "OFF" and unplug
the power cord from its power source.
The environment and frequency of human contact can
have a very detrimental impact on unpainted cast iron
surfaces. Moisture, humidity and oils (from human
hands!) can cause the unpainted cast iron surfaces to
mar or rust, so it is important to conduct routine main-
tenance to keep your mortiser looking new. Cleaning
and waxing the cast iron surfaces on a regular main-
tenance schedule is recommended
as follows:
