Maintenance
WARNING

remove plug from power source out-
let before maintaining or lubricating
your saw.
General
An occasional coat of paste wax on the
work table will allow the wood being cut to
glide smoothly across the work surface.
Drawer - Apply oil safe for plastic to
drawer and guide as necessary.
To maintain blade holder clamping force,
keep finger knob threads cleaned and
oiled using all purpose household
machine (or motor) oil.
Motor/Electrical
The motor bearings are permanently
lubricated and require no further lubrica-
tion.
Do not attempt to oil the motor bearings or
service the motor internal parts.
Arm Bearings
Lubricate the arm bearings after 10 hours
of use. Re-oil after every 50 hours of use
or whenever there is a squeak coming
from the bearings.

• Squirt a generous amount of SAE 30 oil
or household machine oil around the
shaft end and bronze bearing.
• Let the oil soak in overnight in this posi-
tion.
• Next day repeat the above procedure for
the opposite side of the saw.
