Safe Maintenance & Maintenance Schedule
Daily maintenance
Failure to inspect or maintain the CFB16 daily may
cause premature wear of components, resulting in
component failure. Failure of components may result in
damage to unit, persons, and/or property. DFM
accepts no liability on any damage to property or
persons from failure to observe regular inspection and
maintenance procedures.
Tools & Skill Requirements
*Daily maintenance of your equipment requires basic
tools, skill, and expertise.
Welding & hydraulic repair work should be done by a
licensed professional. For a Turbo Saw maintenance
specialist in your area please contact our service
department at (405) 542-3520 or email contact@

Daily maintenance checklist:
Grease all pivot points
• Inspect all cutting teeth for tightness (tighten if
necessary)
• Check cutting disk for vertical play (excessive vertical
play is an indication of bearing failure)
• Inspect all hydraulic lines/couplers for leaks (replace if
necessary)
Practice Safe Maintenance
Always work in a clean and dry environment. Never work
on a running machine or on a machine with moving
parts. Lower unit onto hard surface, disengage unit from
carrier, engage brake, turn off carrier and remove key.
Allow the unit to cool off before maintaining. Caution,
parts may be hot, sharp, or hazardous. Follow guidelines
on protective equipment and clothing.
*If you are not a licensed welder or hydraulic specialist
call your
DFM
for maintenance assistance.
Beware of toxic fumes when maintaining your skid steer
saw. Weld, smolder, or torch in a well ventilated area.
Metal, paint, and other materials can be toxic when
heated. Please be mindful of your chemical environment
and wear the proper equipment when maintaining your
skid steer saw such as a breathing mask and/or welders
mask.
