BLADE WHEEL TIRES
Pitch and sawdust that build up on the tires should be removed with a stiff brush or scraped off with a piece of wood.
NOTE: To avoid damaging the tires do not use a sharp knife or any kind of solvent. When the tires become worn
they should be replaced. When replacing the tires, stretch them around the wheels but do not glue then on.
MOTOR
Frequently blow or vacuum out any sawdust from the motor. Follow lubrication instruction on the motor label.
LUBRICATION
All of the bearings are sealed and permanently lubricated. They require no further lubrication.
Never put lubricants on the blade while it is spinning.
