Maintenance
Note: Maintenance generally includes cleaning up (vacuuming or blowing debris from the machine) af-
ter cuts are done. The motor drive screws are Teon coated – DO NOT lubricate them, as the lubricant
will cause the machine to not run properly.
Item/Duration Maintenance
Motor Screws Wipe screws with a clean dry cloth.
DO NOT USE any kind of lube or solvent-based
cleaner on the Teon coated screws. Doing so
could cause the Teon to ake off.
Rails Wipe them with a clean, dry rag,
Apply a light coat of a machine oil. Wipe off ex-
cess oil as too much will attract dust.
After every 40 hours of use Check for loose screws and parts.
On an as needed basis Remove the clear plastic enclosure from the back
of the machine and gently blow out any dust
that has accumulated in the control area. This is
especially true if cutting aluminum.
Prior to inserting a new bit Wipe clean collets, collet nuts and collet end of
arbor. Apply a light coat of machine oil with an oil
damped rag (not soaked or dripping).
NOTE: Damage or wear due to misuse or an accident will require additional attention depending on
the problem.
