2. MAINTENANCE OF MACHINE
MAINTENANCE
1. On a regular basis blow out any dust that may accumulate inside
the motor. (Frequency depends on environment the machine is
in)
2. A coat of automotive wax applied to the table and column will help
to keep the surface clean.
3. All of the ball bearings are packed with grease at the factory. They
require no further lubrication.
4. Periodically lubricate the gear and rack table elevation
mechanism, the spindle splines and the rack (teeth on the quill).
5. After each use the machine should be cleaned. Weekly
lubrication of all sliding or moving parts with light weight or way oil
is recommended. For your own safely, turn switch "OFF" and
remove plug from power source outlet before maintaining or
lubricating your drill press.
