MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS
Read and follow all the maintenance instructions
provided in this manual to keep the machine in good
operating condition. Refer to the other materials
received with the unit and to the service bulletins
from the manufacturer for additional instructions on
proper maintenance and service. Regular
inspections and proper maintenance are essential to
preventing accidents and injuries.
Before making any
inspection, adjustment, or
repair, disconnect the
power source and block out all moving parts to
prevent injury.
Keep the machine and the
immediate work area
clean. Do not use
compressed air to remove dirt and debris from
the machine. Foreign material may be propelled
into the air and into operator or bystander
causing personal injury.
Wear protective clothing
and use eye protection
when making any
adjustments or repairs to the machine.

slides should be cleaned with a vaporizing
solvent and then lubricated with chassis grease

components at regular intervals. Set up a chart
and assign responsibility for these items.
