Maintenance - Ryobi DP103L Manual Del Operador

WARNING:
When servicing, use only identical replacement parts.
Use of any other parts may create a hazard or cause
product damage.
WARNING:
Always wear eye protection with side shields marked to
comply with ANSI Z87.1. Failure to do so could result in
objects being thrown into your eyes, resulting in possible
serious injury.
WARNING:
Before performing any maintenance, make sure the tool
is unplugged from the power supply and the switch is in
the OFF ( O ) position. Failure to heed this warning could
result in serious personal injury.
GENERAL MAINTENANCE
Avoid using solvents when cleaning plastic parts. Most
plastics are susceptible to damage from various types of
commercial solvents and may be damaged by their use. Use
clean cloths to remove dirt, dust, oil, grease, etc.
WARNING:
Do not at any time let brake fluids, gasoline, petroleum-
based products, penetrating oils, etc., come in contact
with plastic parts. Chemicals can damage, weaken or
destroy plastic which may result in serious personal injury.

MAINTENANCE

After using the drill press, clean it completely and lubricate
all sliding and moving parts. Apply a light coat of automotive-
type paste wax to the table and column to help keep the
surfaces clean.
LUBRICATION
 Lower spindle to maximum depth and oil moderately once
every three months.
 Oil the column lightly every two months.
 If cranking becomes difficult, grease gear rack lightly.
The ball bearings in the tool are permanently lubricated.
MOTOR/ELECTRICAL
The induction motor is easy to maintain but must be kept
clean. Do not allow water, oil, or sawdust to accumulate on
or in it. The sealed bearings are permanently lubricated and
need no further attention.
HEAD ASSEMBLY AND MOTOR HOUSING
Frequently blow out any dust that may accumulate inside
the head assembly and/or motor housing.
PULLEYS
See Figure 25, page 22.
Should you feel an unusually high level of vibration, the pulleys
may not be tightly secured on the motor and/or spindle
shafts. To make sure the pulleys are properly seated and
tight, locate the set screw on each of the pulleys. Tighten
each set screw with the hex key.
GEAR RACK
Periodically lubricate the worm gear and gear rack in order
to keep the vertical movement smooth and to help prolong
the life of the drill press.
