Page 23: Maintenance
Local: 503-640-5920 Cleaning Keencut machines are designed to be virtually maintenance free, however we do recommend regular cleaning. Do not wipe the squaring arm channels or remove any debris with fingers, as it may contain sharp particles such as glass. Use a vacuum cleaner if possible or if a soft brush is used, work slowly and do not allow particles to flick off of the bristles.
