Maintenance Tips

• Clean After Use: Remove metal shavings, dust, and oil to maintain sharp punch edges and accurate holes.
• Inspect for Wear: Check punch and die for chips, cracks, or dullness; replace or sharpen as needed.
• Lubricate Moving Parts: Apply light oil to guides and moving components to reduce friction and prevent corrosion.
• Verify Alignment: Ensure punch and die are properly seated in the ironworker to avoid uneven wear or damage.
• Use Within Rated Capacity: Operate only within the 65-ton rating to prevent overloading or breakage.
• Tighten Mounting Hardware: Secure bolts and clamps to maintain stability and consistent punching.
• Protect from Rust: Store in a dry environment and lightly oil steel surfaces to prevent corrosion.
