clean and free of foreign particles.
•
Operate band saw with a dust collector to minimize
clean up.
LUBRICATION

The shielded ball bearings are permanently
lubricat-
ed and require no further lubrication.

Small amounts of machine oil can be applied to belt
tension mechanisms and threaded or sliding sur-
faces.
•
Occasionally apply a coat of paste wax to table top
to keep it slick and corrosion free.
