Maintenance Chart
Please note that the following maintenance intervals apply for normal
operating conditions only. If your daily working time is longer than normal or
cutting conditions are difficult (very dusty work area, resin-rich wood,
tropical wood etc.), shorten the specified intervals accordingly. If you only
use the saw occasionally, extend the intervals accordingly.
