To MAINTAIN THE CORE SAW
Cleaning:
1. Reservoir pan is to be cleaned at least once a day with clean water (twice a day during
heavy use) as accumulated waste is abrasive. Failure to do this will shorten the life of the
submersible water pump. Drain hole is located at the bottom of tray at rear which has a
removable rubber plug.Flush out water pump and lines with clean water daily after use.
2. Clean and grease all moving parts once a day.
3. Bearings should be cleaned with Shell Alvania grease or equivalent once a day.
Belt Tension:
1. Always keep drive belts tight. To attain the right tension, loosen the four bolts that secure
the motor to frame. Rotate cam lever which bears against base of motor for desired tension.
Belts have been properly tensioned at manufacturing process.
2. When changing belts, a v-belt tester will ensure correct v-belt setting.
3. Check setting on single belt.
4. Apply load at the centre of belt span. Deflection should be 8mm for 1-1.5kg load.
5. Regularly check belts for wear or cracking.
