MAINTENANCE

Lubricating the bar tip sprocket

Lubricate the bar tip sprocket each time you refuel. Use the special grease gun and a good quality bearing grease.

Needle bearing lubrication

Adjustment of the oil pump

(350)

The oil pump is adjustable. Adjustments are made by turning the screw using a screwdriver or combination spanner. The machine is supplied from the factory with the screw set to position 2. Turning the screw clockwise will reduce the oil ﬂow and turning the screw anti- clockwise will increase the oil ﬂow.

The clutch drum has a needle bearing on the output shaft. This needle bearing must be lubricated regularly (once a week).
