CLEAN UP

The protective coating on the saw table prevents rust from
forming during shipping and storage. Remove it by rub-
bing with a rag dipped in kerosene, mineral sprits or paint
thinner. (Dispose of potentially flammable solvent-soaked
rags according to manufacturer's safety recommenda-
tions.)
A putty knife, held flat to avoid scratching the surface, may
also be used to scrape off the coating followed by clean-
up with solvent. Avoid rubbing the saw's painted surfaces,
as many solvent-based products will remove paint.
To prevent rust, apply a light coating of paste wax or
use regular applications of any after-market surface pro-
tectant or rust inhibitor.

the T-slots to remove the grease so the miter gauge will
