17 Servicing, cleaning, maintenance

No special servicing is required as the spindle unit is fully encapsulated. Apply machine oil
to the moving parts at regular intervals.
Remove the jaws regularly and grease the thread with machine grease.
Grease the guides of the moving clamping jaw at regular intervals (every two weeks).
This is done by moving the clamping jaw from the work position.
