Lubricate the arm bearings (one on each side of the saw) after every 50 hours
of use.
> Turn the saw on its side and remove the rubber bearing cover.
> Squirt a generous amount of SAE 20 oil (lightweight motor oil) around the shaft
and bearing.
> Let the oil soak in overnight.
> Repeat the above procedure for the opposite side of the saw.
Lubrication
Check the condition of the carbon brushes after 50 hours of use. If the brushes
are worn to1/16"(2mm)in length, replace them.
> Loosen and remove the two brush caps (47) using a flat-blade screwdriver.
> Pull out each brush (48). Inspect the brush and replace if necessary. Replace
both brushes even if only one is damaged.
> Position the brushes into the motor. Tighten the brush caps (47) snugly. Do not
overtighten.
> Run the saw for approximately 5 to 10 minutes to allow the brushes to "seat"
themselves. If the brushes are not seated correctly, the electric brake may not
function correctly and could damage the motor. While the brushes are seating,
some sparking may be noticed in the motor. This is normal for new brushes.
