The Clausing Lathe, has a very involved maintenance schedule. The lathe should be lubricated daily, or at least as often as it is used. Please refer to the File:Clausing10inLathe4900SeriesOperatingInstructions.pdf for the correct lubrication instructions. While users are expected to perform basic cleanup and lubrication on a per-use basis, PS1 should, on a monthly basis perform the following maintenance operations:
- clean
- oil ways
- oil internal mechanism according to manual's lubrication instructions
- adjust gibs
