Always disconnect power

to the machine before

performing maintenance.

Failure to do this may

result in serious person-

al injury.

The chain should be lubricated periodically with
a light machine oil. Motor bearings need no lubri-
cation. Use only adequate lubrication. Too much
lubricant will attract dirt and sawdust and will clog
the chain mechanism.

Pillow Block Bearing: Must be lubricated every
20 hours of operation. Use a high-quality, lithium-
based grease. A grease fitting (

Figure 20) is

located on the top of each pillow block bearing.

Lubrication

Cleaning the Model G0459 is relatively easy.
From time to time, vacuum wood dust off of the
internal components, especially the motor.
