To fill the hydraulic system:
1. Fully lower the saw.
2. Do not level the saw frame. The 4-Speed Blade Shaft is mounted at
a 78° angle
to the saw frame. Adjust the level of the saw so that the face of the Blade Shaft
housing
is at right angles to the ground.

Fig. 46 — Filling the Hydraulic System
CAUTION
If the saw is not leveled correctly, the 4-Speed Blade Shaft could be
damaged by operating with too little, or too much, oil.
3. Add oil to the fill port on top of the 4-Speed Blade Shaft Housing.
4. Start the engine, and run it for a couple minutes to spread the oil throughout
the system
• Add more oil as required.
• Repeat steps 3 & 4 as necessary.
5. When the 4-Speed Blade Shaft is full, and positioned at 90° to the ground, the
oil should show between the center and the top of the sight glass on the front of the
main housing.
6. Inspect for leaks after service.
!
NOTE
If the Blade Shaft is drained completely, it will require approximately
1 gallon to refill. If the transaxle is drained as well, it will require
approximately one additional gallon.
