General Machine Maintenance
The model TSM-21 requires some maintenance. To ensure productivity and longevity of your
Castle Pocket Cutter, it is essential to follow a few simple steps. How often these steps are
performed depends upon the number of hours the machine is operated each day. As a general
rule, operators should visually inspect the machine at the start of each work shift in the following
manner:
Check the Power Cord and the Foot Switch cord for wear or damage.
Ensure that the Router Bit and the Drill Bit are clean, sharp, and undamaged.
Keep the Router and Drill Motors free from dust build up.
Check for proper Safety Switch function. Turn the machine on and press the Foot Pedal
without a work piece against the Safety Buttons. The machine should not cycle if the
Safety Buttons are not pressed. If you suspect a Safety Switch malfunction, contact a
Castle, Inc. Support Technician at 1-800-282-8338 as soon as possible for corrective
action.
IMPORTANT
Do not introduce lubricants, oils, or solvents into the pneumatic system. Irreparable
damage to pneumatic seals and components may occur.
Using lubricants in the pneumatics of your TSM-21 may void your Warranty!
