7. MAINTENANCE Before performing any maintenance, turn off the power switch CAUTION and remove all the loaded screws from this machine. 7- 1. Cleaning the Rail and Rail Guide Wall When the rail groove is soiled, the screw feeding speed may become lower. If such a situation is encountered, wipe the rail groove clean with a thin, clean cloth moistened with alcohol.
8. REPLACING PARTS Before performing any maintenance, turn off the power switch CAUTION and remove all the loaded screws from this machine. This machine allows you to change the size of the screws used by replacing parts.
