There are four grease points for the saw. Use only Premium
Extreme Pressure Grease, conforming to NLG1 Grade #2
consistency, to grease the zerk fittings.

geNeral TraNSMiSSioN Care
The saw utilizes spline gear wheel design coupled with an
EATON Model 7 Hydrostatic Transmission that provides
forward/reverse propulsion. The simple design of the
system keeps maintenance to a minimum.
Transmission reservoir Cup
Check every 8 hours of operation. When the transmission
is cold (A), check oil level against the level indicator.
Figure 47. Transmission Reservoir
Servicing:
The transmission reservoir is factory-filled. Should
servicing be required, use SAE20W-20, API classification
(SE,CC,CD) or better, General Motors Dexron B, Ford
M2C-33F, M2C-41A or International Harvester Hy-Tran
fluids. For extreme hot weather, drain oil and refill with an
oil having a viscosity of SAE30W-30 or SAE40W-40.
Drive Chain:
Check every 50 hours. Periodically wipe the chain clean
and relubricate with penetrating chain oil.
The drive chain may stretch requiring tension adjustments.
To adjust the drive chain tension perform the following
steps. Refer to Figure 48 for location of parts.
1. Loosen the four transmission attachment screws.
2. Pivot the transmission in the “U” slots of the transmission
mount until the proper tension is achieved.
NOTICE
Do NoT use multiple viscosity oil. Do NoT overfill.
