7.1. The cutting bar
The opening with a plug A is used to fill and refill cutting bar oil (Pict 26). The correct oil level when
the cutting bar is leveled should reach from 5-7 mm from the bottom. The necessary amount of oil is
shown in the following table.

7.2. Miter gears
Every day before operation the oil level should be checked and if necessary topped off after removing
the plug A (Pict 27) on the top of the gear box. Oil level is checked by removing the control plug B on
the side of the gear box. If the oil level is too low it should be refilled until oil it comes out through
the control opening B. The amount of oil in the gear box is approximately 1 liter. Oil level is checked
with the cutting bar level on the ground.
