Use and Care Manual

MAINTENANCE
• Always release tension on the blade when the saw is not
in use.
•
Clean the saw regularly with a soft bristle brush or by vac-
uuming to keep cutting dust from accumulating.
• An occasional application of a light dab of grease on
the front and rear trunnions F will keep the tilting mecha-
nism working smoothly. If you find the tilting mechanism
becoming more difficult to operate, thoroughly wipe off
any built-up cutting dust on the trunnions and re-apply a
little grease.
• The bearings in the drive mechanism are sealed and
permanently lubricated and do not need to be oiled or
greased..
