Please note that the following maintenance intervals apply for normal operating conditions only
If your daily working time is longer than normal or cutting conditions are difficult (very dusty work
area, resin-rich wood, tropical wood etc.), shorten the specified intervals accordingly. If you only
use the saw occasionally, extend the intervals accordingly.
