Step 3. Tighten tank tensioning bolt
counter-clockwise with 6mm Allen
key in small increments and check
for proper chain tension. 3mm-5mm
of play is optimum after tightening.
Once proper tension has been
achieved, re-tighten the 13mm nut.
Step 2. Loosen 13mm tank tensioning
nut clockwise.
Step 1. Remove the Perspex cover from Mainframe.
The chain will require periodic tightening and lubrication using the 20-weight oil supplied. This is a general time
frame for lubrication which will vary slightly depending on usage.
After first 50 hours of use:
1. Remove the Perspex cover.
2. Inspect chain for dryness and proper tension. Note: The chain should have approx
3-5mm of play after tightening with a smooth run on after every stroke.
3. Lubricate lightly with the supplied 20 weight oil. Warning! After lubrication, any excess
oil will be thrown onto the inside of the Perspex cover and possibly the floor below.
Use a drop cloth both during and after chain lubrication to prevent oil stains.
Repeat after every 100 operating hours to maintain optimum performance.
Chain tension and lubrication:
General Maintenance
Warning!
Keep fingers clear of all moving parts
while adjusting the chain!
Caution:
Always use a dropcloth under the
machine after lubricating the chain to
protect floors/carpet from excess oil
spatter.
