table saw maintenance

[aritoni]

I have a Delta 36-650 and bothing in the instruction manual is mentionned about maintenance,

What is there to do about gears and parts?
What kind of grease if needed?


Thanks

The motor and bearings should all be sealed and therefore maintenance free. For the adjustment screws you might consider using graphite instead of grease as a lubricant because it's dry and therefore less likely to attract dust and turn to sludge.

Good extraction will help to keep things clean and running smoothly.

Excellent stuff, it even cured a sticky 60amp 12volt set of contactors for me, the dry lubrication works a treat.
