WARNING
assure continued operation of your saw.
MAKE CERTAIN THAT THE SAW IS

an air hose. Be sure to use air pressure no higher than
WARNING
50 P.S.I as high pressure air may damage insulation.
Be sure to wear protective eyewear and dust mask
when cleaning out the cabinet of the saw.
Lubrication
The table saw has sealed lubricated bearings in the
motor housing and the arbor assembly that do not
require any additional lubrication from the operator.
The tabletop is an unfinished metal surface that, over
time, will accumulate rust if not properly cared for.
When the table saw is not in use, keep a light coat of
WD-40 on the table top as this will help prevent rust
from occurring. If rust has already accumulated on the
table, use WD-40 and a fine steel wool to get rid of the
rust. Using a quality paste wax on the tabletop and
wings is a good preventative measure to help prevent
rust from forming. There are specific products
designed to keep you machinery protected and in
good condition. Please talk to Carba-Tec if you
require any information on these spaciality products.
