This document discusses the steps a BT3000 user could use to perform periodic
maintenance in an effort to extend the life of the saw. The question of how often to
perform this type of maintenance is dependent on the amount of usage. As a general
rule of thumb, any time something on the saw does not perform in a normal fashion
would be a good time to perform this entire maintenance process. Even if you are using
the saw with an operating dust collection device of some type attached, you might as
well perform the entire process, rather than just checking what you think may be wrong.
If you haven’ t been using a dust collection device with this saw, you will have to
perform this maintenance and cleaning a lot more often. Running this saw with some
form of dust collection attached is one of the best things you can do to prevent
premature failure of the components of this machine. If your machine requires any
repair or maintenance that you do not feel you can do, contact Ryobi Technical Support
for assistance in locating a repair center closest to you.
