Cleaning of the machine
Your machine will last longer if you clean it thoroughly after each day of work, especially water
pump, water pan, motor and blade flange.
Lubrication
The CM501 uses life-lubricated bearings. Therefore, you don’t need to lubricate the machine at all.
Adjustment and replacement of the belts
To adjust the belts, firstly remove the belt guard by unscrewing the 4 screws. To remove the belt
guard, you need to remove the upper part of the pivot bearing. Loose the 4 motor bolts and shift the
motor by using the two screws on the side.
To replace the belts, move the motor forward on the cutting head. Adjust the belts and retighten
them by shifting the motor to the rear of the machine.
Always use a matched set of belts. Do not replace single belts.
