MAINTENANCE
Bevel gear
The bevel gear is filled with the right quan-
tity of grease at the factory. However, be-
fore using the machine you should check
that the bevel gear is filled three--quarters
full with grease. Use JONSRED special
grease.
The grease in the bevel gear does not nor-
mally need to be changed except if repairs
are carried out.
