1. Maintenance
Before any maintenance work, the machine must be switched off and completely cooled.
Perform the maintenance work according to the instructions below and perform them regularly. A clean,
well-maintained machine increases its standard of living and efficiency. On the contrary, a machine
maintained can cause damage, accidents and render the tool inoperable in the short term.
Any other maintenance, modification or repair work must be carried out by a qualified professional.
Do not immerse the tool in water or any other liquid.
a. After each use
Keep saw body clean, use a soft cloth dampened with a mild soap and water mixture, wipe saw body to clean.
b. Guide bar
Cleaning: Remove bar guide to remove dirt from grooves and oil inlet.
Regularly grease the pinion.
Check: Reverse the bar from time to time to avoid the effects of wear. The bar rail should always be in place.
Use a ruler to observe it. If a gap is observed between them, then the rail is normal. Otherwise, the rail is worn
out. A bar must be corrected or replaced.
c. Sprocket
Check the sprocket on signs of wear. If wearing is important, replace it with a new one. Do not install a chain
on a worn or damaged sprocket. Do not install a worn chain on a pinion.
