Routine Maintenance

The following items need to be periodically inspected
and maintained to keep your sander in good working
condition.
Wheels
Periodically remove the debris from the truck and
caster wheels. Debris can cause waves on a sanded
surface. Lubricate truck mechanism every 25 hours of
use. The machine is equipped with lubrication fittings
and are located on shaft supporting mechanism.
Dust Bag
Remove the dust bag from the machine and shake it
thoroughly to remove the sanding dust from the dust
bag. Turn the dust bag inside out and machine wash
in cold water to prevent pore blockage and loss of
dust recovery.
Drive Belt

Bearings
Periodically check the bearings for wear or damage
according to the following schedule:
