G3183 Hollow Chisel Mortiser

SECTION 5: MAINTENANCE

Lubrication

The Model G3183 Hollow Chisel Mortiser
requires a minimum of maintenance. The opera-
tor should clear the machine of wood chips after
every use and periodically wipe the machine of
dust and grime. All of the bearings within the
machine are lubricated and sealed at the factory,
so lubrication by the operator is unnecessary. A
periodic application of light oil on the rack-and-
pinion gearing will insure smooth operation
between the head and column.

Make a habit of inspecting your Hollow Chisel
Mortiser each time you use it. Check for the fol-
lowing conditions and repair or replace when nec-
essary.
