Machine Maintenance
Posted: Thu Dec 14, 2017 12:07 am
I have asked a couple of people (one being the manager of a Rockler store) about what kind of maintenance I can do for my machine to get more life out of it. I have been told that all I could really do is just blow the dust off of it. I don’t know about that. It just doesn’t sit well with me. There has to be more I can do. The last few times I have operated my machine I have noticed a vibrating sound on the
Z axis as I am lowering it down. It concerns me. I feel there is more that should be done for maintenance. I would like to put oil on the screw shafts that control the movements. Something that will not gunk up from the sawdust. Any
suggestions? They would be very much appreciated. Thank you in advance.
