Frequently blow off sawdust with compressed air. This is especially important for the internal working
parts and motor. Dust build-up around the motor is a sure way to decrease its lifespan.
Occasionally it will become necessary to clean the internal parts with more than compressed air. To do
this, remove the table top and clean the internal parts with a citrus cleaner or mineral spirits and a stiff
brush (a toothbrush works well in tight spaces). Make sure the internal workings are dry before using the
saw again so that wood dust will not accumulate. If any essential lubrication is removed during cleaning,
relubricate those areas.
Tables can be kept rust-free with regular applications of products like SLIPIT
you may want to consider products like Boeshield T-9™.
