• Move fuel shutoff lever to closed or off position
(gas saw).
• Raise saw to proper height for easy access
when working underneath saw, and place jack
stands or blocks under frame edges at front and
back of frame.
Maintenance Overview
Complete the following maintenance tasks as

Daily/Regularly
• Lubricate blade shaft bearing grease fittings

• Inspect belts after first four hours of use, and
then daily for tension and wear. Replace or re-
tension as necessary.

manufacturer for a full maintenance schedule and
additional maintenance information
Handlebars
.
The handlebars generally require little or no
maintenance and, when used correctly, should
remain in good, working condition. Inspect the
handlebars occasionally for bending, unusual
cracks, and/or breakage. Replace them
immediately when damaged.
Part Lubrication
WARNING
• DO NOT grease parts
with the engine running
unless stated otherwise.
Lubricating parts on schedule increases the saw’s
efficiency and life. Use NLGI No. 2 premium
lithium-based grease when lubricating parts.
Blade Shaft
Lubricate both blade shaft bearing grease fittings at
the end of the workday, or two to three times daily
when dry cutting. Always grease the fittings with the
engine/motor running at idle (extremely low
speed!). Use one full pump of grease when
greasing the blade shaft fittings.
