Maintenance—Every 8 Hours or Daily
CAUTION: Prevent possible injury working in
the arm capture zones or the saw bar opening
of the harvester head. Stop the engine.
Failure to follow the safety precautions can
lead to risk of serious injury.
IMPORTANT: Saw components wear more rapidly
in cold temperatures. Ensure saw chain is
kept lubricated at all times. Failure to do so
may result in link failure and a saw chain
being ejected at high speed.
1. Lubricate all grease fittings. Lubricate twice per shift
if working in hardwood applications. (Refer to Fluids
and Lubricants.)
2. Fill saw chain lubrication reservoir, on left hand side
of the harvester head. Clean the area around the
reservoir cap of all debris and dirt and remove the cap.
Fill completely with saw chain oil per the recommended
saw chain oil chart. (Refer to Fluids and Lubricants.)
3. Conduct overall visual inspection. Check valve,
motors, cylinders, and all hoses for leaks or wear.
Tighten or replace fittings and hoses as necessary.
4. Check top saw and main saw chain condition. Inspect
saw chains for excessive wear, cracking, or broken
teeth. Replace saw chain if necessary.
5. Check chain shot guard. See Chain Shot Guard
