Blade Tracking Adjustment
Since tracking can only be adjusted while machine is running, it is suggested that this adjustment be accomplished by qualified personnel that are familiar with this type of adjustment and the dangers associated with it.
Blade tracking has been set at the factory and should require no adjustment. If a tracking problem occurs, adjust the machine as follows:

Lubrication and Gearbox
All ball bearings are permanently lubricated and sealed. They require no further lubrication.
The gearbox lubricant should be changed after the first 3 months of operation. Use Mobil SHC 634, or equivalent. Change lubricant from then on every year.
To check level of gear box lubricant, place arm in down position and allow a few minutes to pass so that oil drains down. Check level in sight glass on side of gear casing. Correct level is the dot in the middle of sight glass.
