7.11.2. CLEANING AND REPLACING THE AIR FILTER
FILTER REPLACEMENT
• Disconnect the machine from the drive;
• Remove the drive protection;
• Remove the drive cover, the hydraulic tube, and the spring screws;
• Replace the filter with a new one, clean the interior, and reattach the drive cover;
• Tighten the spring screws and secure them with the adhesive LOCTITE 222 (or similar). Pay
attention to distance X, which should be between 16 and 17 mm. The distance for all three screws
must be THE SAME LENGTH. Attention! If the spring is completely compressed, the clutch will
not work;
• Tighten the hydraulic tube and, finally, secure the drive protection.
CLEANING THE FILTER
• Remove sawdust and waste from the top of the filter (the cover) to allow free air flow to the inside
of the saw drive;
• Regularly clean and change the filter on the saw drive. An unclean filter impedes the cooling air
flow to the drive assembly, which may result in overheating or damage to the drive assembly
(bearings, belt, shaft...).
