Cleaning
Cleaning the Model G0611X is relatively easy.
Vacuum excess wood chips and sawdust, and
wipe off the remaining dust with a dry cloth. If any
resin has built up, use a resin dissolving cleaner
to remove it.
Protect the unpainted cast iron table by wiping
it clean after every use—this ensures moisture
from wood dust does not remain on bare metal
surfaces. Keep the table rust-free with regular
applications of products like G96
T-9 (see Page 29 for more
SLIPIT
, or Boeshield

details).
Lubrication
Most of the bearings in the machine are sealed
and lubricated for life.
The spindle has one grease fitting that must be
greased approximately every 40 hours or one
week of regular use (refer to Figure 56). Use high
temperature bearing grease.
