Hydraulic reservoir components.
Inspect and clean the breather cap and filler screen every 40 hours of regular use.
The breather cap is vented to allow the hydraulic system to breathe during operation. Below the breather
cap is a plastic filler screen.
Visually inspect both the breather cap and the plastic filler screen. If there is visual contamination, clean
both items with solvent and compressed air. Allow them to completely dry before installing back in place.
Hydraulic System Minor Service
The hydraulic system minor service consists of changing the fluid filter, cleaning the breather cap and
filler screen, and inspecting the hydraulic fluid for signs of thermal breakdown, dust contamination and
water contamination.
Perform a “Minor Service” every 960 hours or every 6 months of regular use.
WARNING
：
The hydraulic system on this machine creates very high pressure and the hydraulic fluid gets hot. Always
stop the resaw, open the conveyor speed valves, make sure the pressure gauge reads 0 psi, and make sure
the fluid cools down before removing any lines or servicing the hydraulic system.
To change the filter
：
1. Read the hydraulic safety instructions on page 6 before continuing.
2. Disconnect the two hydraulic lines that are over the filter cap and remove the pipe fitting so there is
clear access directly over the filter cap.
3. Remove the filter cap by completely removing the three bolts that secure it in place.
4. Set aside the filter cap spring and O-ring, so that they do not fall into the tank when you remove the
filter.
5. Lift the filter assembly out of the tank.
