Section 7 – MAINTENANCE
7.1 Periodic Maintenance
After use for the day, clean out saw chips that have accumulated in the machine. To do
this, set the cutting fluid pumps switch at “|”and wash saw chips away with the discharging
cutting fluid.
Before beginning operation for the day, perform the following maintenance operations:
1. Check the hydraulic oil level, adding oil if necessary.
2. Check the cutting fluid level, adding fluid as
necessary. If the fluid appears contaminated or
deteriorated, drain and replace it.
3. Check the saw blade to ensure that it is properly
positioned on both the drive, idle wheels and in the left
and right inserts.
4. Check the wire brush for proper contact with the saw
blade. If it is worn, replace.
5. Check the urethane rope (used on the idle wheel) for
wear. If they are broken, replace.
6. Lubricate the following points:
a. Front vise slide plates
b. Rear vise slide plates
c. Feed cylinder guide shaft.
7.2 Six Month Maintenance
Check the following once every six months:
1. Clean the filters in the cutting fluid tank.
2. Replace the transmission oil (recommended oil: 80/90
synthetic) after the first three months or 600 hours of
operation and every six months or 1200 hours of
operation (whichever occurs first) thereafter.
3. Replace the hydraulic oil.
