5.3 Machine Lubrication
See the included maintenance log for lubrication
intervals (Appendix A). This section includes the
locations where grease will be added per the
maintenance intervals. Use NLGI 2 LITHIUM based
grease.
!
CAUTION
DO NOT use greases that contain graphite or carbon particles or
fibers of any type.
Use only small amounts of grease (1 pump) at each
location to avoid damage to the seals. There are 38
grease ttings on the saw, outfeed and trash conveyor
system. If the saw is equipped with an Automated
Infeed there are 16 additional ttings (for a total of 54).
The following Figures will help in nding the location of
all the grease ttings.
L1 & L2 Pushers: There are 4 grease ttings on top
of the each bearing block on the L1 & L2 Pushers (8
total).

5.2 Cleaning
Clean sawdust out of the machine at the end of each
shift of operation.
The L1 & L2 assemblies, emitters, receivers, and shafts
(Section 5.1.2) should receive special attention during
each saw cleaning. Following this instruction will insure
the lumber feeding system operates smoothly. Each can
be cleaned using a vacuum.
!
CAUTION
Use a vacuum to do this to avoid the intense dust hazard from
using compressed air in the confined space of the machine.
!
CAUTION
Pay particular attention to the belt drives (L1 and L2) and the
T-axis linear bearings. Sawdust will accumulate on the T-axis
bearings and will cause damage to the bearings if they are not
kept clean.
!
CAUTION
Pay special attention to the top of the Z-axis bearings, around the
Z axis actuator (on top of the head assembly), the tops of the
linear bearings on the L drives, the B1 homing slot (if the saw was
equipped with a bevel axis) and the T1 spur and rack gear
assembly.
