6 Service and maintenance
MAFELL machines are of a low-maintenance design.
The installed ball bearings are lubricated for life. After a longer period of operation, MAFELL recommends that
the machine be handed over to an authorized MAFELL service workshop for inspection.
6.1 Storage
Clean the machine thoroughly if you will not use it for quite some time. Spray bare metal parts with a rust
inhibitor.
7 Troubleshooting
Risk of injury from a sudden start of the machine.
There is a risk that the machine starts suddenly due to carelessness when
working with the machine or during troubleshooting. The rotating tool can cause
serious injuries.
➢ Determining the causes of existing malfunctions and their elimination
