Slugger 17985 - Regular Maintenance; Dimensions and Specifications

1. The motor slide may require adjustment after machine has been in service. Loosen jam nuts using provided wrench.
Using feed handles, position motor/slide assembly in the full up position. Using supplied hex key, equally turn
adjustment screws clockwise to increase slide tension or counterclockwise to decrease slide tension. Do not over tighten
adjustment screws. Excessive slide tension can damage the machine. Properly adjusted, the motor/slide assembly
should have no side to side movement and remain positioned without drifting down.
2. Keep bottom of magnet clean, free of chips, burrs, nicks, oil and other contaminants. Inspect magnet face
to ensure surface is flat and square. A worn magnet surface dramatically reduces magnetic holding force.
3. Periodically lubricate motor slide ways with lithium base grease.
4. Visually inspect arbor, sleeve and support bracket for wear.
5. Arbor runout should not exceed .0035 inches per revolution. This is most accurately measured by placing a dial
indicator needle inside of arbor bore and rotating arbor while observing indicator.
6. Inspect coolant system, reservoir, o-rings, lip seals and coolant collar for wear.
7. Inspect motor brushes and replace as needed.
8. Replace any worn parts and regularly tighten fasteners that have become loose during usage.
9. Regularly test machine by placing machine on non-ferrous material. Engage magnet switch.
Motor should not start.
