SECTION 6: MAINTENANCE
Always disconnect power
to the machine before
performing maintenance.
Failure to do this may
result in serious person-
al injury.
For optimum performance from your machine,
follow this maintenance schedule and refer to any
specific instructions given in this section.
Daily Check:
• Make sure mill/drill is disconnected from
power when not in use.
• Check for loose mounting bolts.
• Make sure mill/drill is clean and lubricated.
• Check for worn or damaged wires.
• Check for any other unsafe condition.
Monthly Check:
• Check that gibs are adjusted properly.
Biannual Check:
• Lubricate table leadscrews.
Schedule
Metal chips left on the machine that have been
soaked with water-based coolant will invite oxi-
dation and a gummy residue buildup around the
moving parts. Use a brush and shop vacuum to
remove chips and debris from the working sur-
faces of the mill. Never blow off the mill with com-
pressed air, as this will force metal chips deep into
the mechanisms and may cause injury to yourself
or bystanders.
Remove any rust build-up from unpainted cast
iron surfaces of your mill and treat them with a
non-staining lubricant after cleaning.
Keep unpainted cast iron surfaces rust-free with
regular applications of products like G96
®
Gun
Treatment, SLIPIT
®
, or Boeshield
®
T-9 (see the
Grizzly catalog or website).
