    Slide cover maintenance

    Hi!

    Is your slide covers with lot of scrape and chips has made them sticky ?
    -take sandpaper and polish covers really smooth
    -replace thin metallic ribbon which protects rubber scraper

    I have spent a fortune to these slide covers, and this is the way to double lifetime.
    Yes very simple.Everybody should know this.But i did not knew until old service man told it to me.

    i regulary clean these slides ... i have scrapes only on lathe, on the W slide, because parts fall there, until i started protecting them with plastic sheet that stays in place with a magnet

    i think i will replace that soon, because i am expecting a pats catcher

    however, after installing that plastic cover, parts were falling smooth, so i increased the rpm during cutting ... and i break the window
