In addition to proper lubrication, routine cleaning is important for the maintenance of your G8 Head.

The entire Head should be torn down and rebuilt every three months and the following areas should

be cleaned once a month:

• Large Feed Gear (G20110A): remove and wash in an oil-dissolving

solvent, dry and relubricate.

• Anywhere that dust, oil or pieces of wire and paper have built

up - for example: around the Clincher Points and around the

Wire Straightener Rollers.

• the top of the Bonnet (G20000A) on either

side of the Feed Slide (G20131).

• the fittings on the Feed Lever Pivot Pin and

the Small Feed Gear Pin (G20262A).

• the Cutter Operating Lever Pivot Pin

(G20231) and Roller Pin (G20232).

• the Wire Straightening Rollers (G20208B)

in the Cutter Block Assembly (G20197A).

• on the Wire Holder Assembly under the

Wire Holder Retaining Spring Foot

(G20184).

• where the Wire Holder Assembly

(G20559BA) pivots in the Left and Right

Wire Guide Bars (G20141 and G20142).

• on the Bender Bar Latch (G20149) and the

Latch Release Cam (G20115).
