In order to 'get the best life' out of your Walter machine always keep it in good
working order.
A number of items must always be checked on Walter machines.
Always before starting any job make sure the machine is in good working order and that there are no damaged or
loose parts. Any loose parts must be tightened.
Before proceeding with any maintenance work be certain that the power supply is disconnected.

Visually check the machine for damage.
The machine must be checked before operation for any signs of damage that will affect the operation of the machine.
Particular notice must be taken to the mains cable, if the machine appears to be damaged it should not be used,
failure to do so may cause injury or death.
Check operation of the machine.
The machines operation must be checked to ensure that all components are working correctly.
Machine Brushes
Should be checked to make sure there is no abnormal wear present (this should be checked at least once a week if
used frequently). If the brush has worn more than 2/3 of the original length, the brushes should be changed. Failure to
do so may cause damage to the machine.
Magnetic base
Before every operation the magnetic base should be checked to make sure that the base is flat and there is no
damage present. An uneven magnet base will cause the magnet not to hold as efficiently and may cause injury to the
operator.
Adjustment of slide and bearing bracket alignment.
An essential requirement of the machine is that the slide can move in a smooth and controlled manner, free of lateral
movement and vibration.
This situation can be maintained by periodic adjustment of the slide and is accomplished in the following manner:
1. Place the machine in an upright position and, by means of the capstan, raise the slide to its highest position.
Clean the brass gib strips and apply a small amount of light machine oil to the wear surfaces.
2. Now lower the slide back to its lowest position. Bring the slide into the center of the dovetail slide housing
and loosen screws thus allowing free movement of the arbor support bracket.
3. Commencing with the middle screws, gently feed in all the screws until slight resistance is encountered.
