3.2.3 Machine Exterior
• The machine’s exterior should be cleaned with a non-abrasive water based detergent applied
to a damp cloth.
• Always be careful when cleaning around safety warning labels. Use limited amounts of
cleaners in those areas.
3.3 Lubrication (All Models)
3.3.1 Clamp
Send the clamp down, then turn off the power. Disconnect the power cord, remove and disconnect
the d
isplay panel, and remove the top cover. Wipe off any old or excess grease. Use any brand-
name type of grease and apply to the areas shown in Figure 2. It may be helpful to use a small brush
to apply grease.

3.3.2 Backgauge Lead Screw and Guide Shaft
Remove the rear bottom cover. Use any brand-name type of grease or light oil to lubricate
backgauge lead screw and guide shaft (Figure 3, page 12). It may be helpful to use a small brush to
apply grease. Note: the lead screw may be lubricated with grease or oil. Oil has a tendency to run
off and must be lubricated more frequently; grease tends to collect paper dust and must be cleaned
off periodically.
