SawStop Industrial Mobile Base - Manual (Page 5)

● Keep the jack clean and free from saw dust.
● Use SAE 30 oil to periodically lubricate the points shown in Fig. 7.
To access the lubrication points, remove the three jack cover screws
using a Philips head screwdriver (see Fig. 8) and then remove the
jack cover.
● The jack must have the proper amount of hydraulic oil to function
correctly. If the jack is not lifting or maintaining the weight of the saw
properly you may need to remove the jack from the mobile base and
add hydraulic oil as follows:
1. Make sure the saw is lowered to the ground. Remove the center
release lever screw shown in Fig. 8 using a 3 mm hex key.
Remove the three jack cover screws, and the two jack mounting
screws using a Philips screwdriver.
2. Slide the release lever (with the attached release adjustment
plate) off the hexagonal shaft. Remove the jack cover.
3. Place a flat head screwdriver on top of the jack lifting piston (see
Fig 7) and push the piston down as far as possible. Remove
the jack by tilting the top forward and sliding the hexagonal
shaft back out of the hole in the mobile base frame.
4. Once the jack is removed, place it in an upright position
and remove the extension spring. Completely depress the
foot pedal. Remove the rubber filler plug shown in Fig. 7 by
pulling it out with your fingers or prying it out with a flat head
screwdriver. Add hydraulic jack oil so that the oil level is just
to the bottom of the filler hole. Use only hydraulic jack oil.
Replace the filler plug and extension spring and reinstall the
jack by reversing the steps set forth above.
6. After removing the release lever, you will see a release
adjustment plate (see Fig. 6). That plate has a hole with
12 notches. To decrease the speed at which the saw
lowers, slide the adjustment plate off the hexagonal shaft
and rotate the plate counter-clockwise one notch ( 1 ⁄
12th
of
a turn) before sliding it back onto the shaft. To increase the
speed at which the saw lowers, slide the adjustment plate
off the hexagonal shaft and rotate the plate clockwise one
notch ( 1 ⁄
12th
of a turn) before sliding it back onto the shaft.
7. Reinstall the release lever on the hexagonal shaft, and
screw in and fully tighten the three release lever screws.
Test the speed at which the saw lowers and repeat these
steps if necessary.
