Drive Wheel

Remove the cutting wire before taking off any of the 

wheels.

To replace the drive wheel liner, you must first remove the 

wheel and motor assembly from the saw bow using the fol-

lowing procedure.

1.

Hold or support the drive wheel and hydraulic motor 

assembly, so that it does not fall when you remove the 

fasteners holding it to the saw bow.

2.

Loosen the set screws in the stop collars on the pivot 

pin and remove the pin from the frame. Be careful not 

to lose the stop collars.

Figure 4-17.  Loosen the set screws in the stop collars 

to remove the pivot pin.

3.

Remove the nut from the bolt holding the wheel 

assembly to the tension rod, then remove the bolt. The 

wheel and motor assembly will be free from the saw 

bow.
