Maintenance & Troubleshooting
As with any machine, to ensure optimal performance you must conduct regular maintenance.
Note: If you are operating within a Quality System Certified Facility (ISO/QS 9000, TS-16949,etc.), be advised to
incorporate the daily & weekly maintenance checks into the preventive maintenance protocol of the facilities Quality
System.
Daily Checks
1.) Clean the machine and lubricate unpainted surfaces with a Teflon lubricant. Wipe off any excess and buff with a
dry polishing cloth. This will reduce the likelihood of rust forming.
2.) Check cutter teeth for chips and dullness.
3.) Generally inspect the machine for damage and loose or worn parts.
Weekly Checks
1. Clean the cutters.
2. Check cutter teeth for chips and dullness.
3. Generally inspect the machine for damage and loose or worn parts.
4. Check the dust extraction for blockages and any large bits that could cause blockages.
Oiling the Machine:
The machine is provided with a central oiler. Do not over lubricate the machine as excess oil attracts dirt and
sawdust. It is recommended that one pump of the oiler once a month will be sufficient to keep your machine
lubricated. When the oil tank needs filling, top up with a good quality SAE 30 weight oil.
Jacking the Table Level:
The machine is provided with table jacking points. The jacking points come factory set and should not need
adjustment. Do not adjust the jacking points until you have contacted Laguna Tools customer service.
