SECTION 4: MAINTENANCE

Always disconnect power
to the machine before
performing maintenance.
Failure to do this may
result in serious person-
al injury.

Schedule

For optimum performance from your jig, follow this
maintenance schedule and refer to any specific
instructions given in this section.
Daily Check:
• Loose mounting bolts, levers, setscrews and
jam nuts.
• Worn or damaged parts.
• Rust or corrosion on threads and machined
surfaces.
• Any other unsafe condition.

Cleaning

Cleaning the Model H7583 is relatively easy.
Vacuum excess wood chips and sawdust, and
wipe off the remaining dust with a dry cloth. If any
resin has built up, use a resin dissolving cleaner
to remove it. Treat all unpainted cast iron and
steel with a non-staining lubricant after cleaning.

Unpainted Cast Iron

Protect the unpainted cast iron surfaces on the jig
by wiping it clean after every use—this ensures
moisture from wood dust does not remain on bare
metal surfaces.
Keep unpainted cast iron rust-free with regular
applications of products like G96
SLIPIT , or Boeshield

Lubrication

For setscrew and lock lever threads, an occa-
sional application of light machine oil is all that
is necessary. Before applying lubricant, clean off
sawdust.
Your goal is to achieve adequate lubrication. Too
much lubrication will attract dirt and sawdust.
Various parts of your jig could lose their freedom
of movement as a result.
