STOW CUTTER 1 CE SAW — MAINTENANCE

MAINTENANCE

See the engine manual supplied with your machine for appropriate engine maintenance schedule and troubleshooting guide for problems.

General maintenance practices are crucial to the performance and longevity of your saw. The extreme environments of sawing operations require routine cleaning, lubrication, belt tensioning, and inspection for wear and damage

The following procedures devoted to maintenance performed by competent persons can prevent serious saw damage or mal- functioning.

■REMOVING or INSTALLING blades

■ADJUSTING front or rear pointers

■LUBRICATING any components

■REMOVING engine mounting bolts

■INSPECTING, ADJUSTING, OR

REPLACING drivebelt, spindle, spindle bearings or ANY engine part

■REMOVING blade or belt guards

DANGER

Some maintenance operations may require the engine to be run. Ensure that the mainte- nance area is well ventilated. Exhaust con- tains poisonous carbon monoxide gas that can cause of unconsciousness and may re- sult in DEATH.

WARNING

Before servicing or inspection, ALWAYS park the saw on a level surface with the blade removed, and the handlebar En- gine ON/OFF switch & Engine ON/OFF switch in “OFF” position.

CAUTION

ALWAYS ensure that both ENGINE ON/ OFF switches (on the handlebar and on the engine) are in the "OFF" position, and that the spindle has COMPLETELY STOPPED ROTATING before performing any of the the following operations:

CAUTION

ALWAYS allow the engine to cool before servicing. NEVER attempt any maintenance work on a hot! engine.

Saw Blade Removal and Installation

See page 21.

General Cleanliness

Clean the machine daily. Remove all dust and slurry build up. If the saw is steam cleaned, ensure that lubrication is accom- plished AFTER steam cleaning operations.

Chassis Lubrication

■Spindle Bearings - Two zerk fittings are located up under the lower-front of the saw. Lubricate before daily use. Use a good quality extreme pressure grease. Check and lubricate more often if unit is under heavy use. Do not overfill bearings. Overfilling can damage the grease seals. This can result in bearing exposure to dirt and contaminants which can then shorten the life of the bearings. Excess grease can also drip onto the cutting surface.

Drive Belt

Refer to page 18 of this manual for Drive Belt adjustment procedures and Removal and Replacement procedures.

General Engine Care

Engine check:

Check daily for any oil and/or fuel leakage, thread nut & bolt tightness, and overall cleanliness.

Engine air filter:

Replace air filter if dirty. See Engine Owner’s Manual for detailed information.

Engine oil:

Check daily. Inspect with blade removed and saw frame level on a level surface. Keep the oil clean, and at the proper servicing level (Figure 7). DO NOT OVERFILL! SAE 10W- 30 of SG is recommended for general use.
