MAINTENANCE Kohler Engine Oil viscosity vs. ambient Temperature. Dry Cutting Engine Maintenance • When operating the engine in dry cutting or dusty environments the following is required: • Engine oil changed more often. • Every 50 hours (or more often if conditions require) clean all the engine cooling fins.
The best tension for a belt drive is the lowest tension at which the belts will not slip under full load. Adjusting Belt Tension: The C914P/C914PK saw uses dual tensioning bolt system for the belt tensioning. The Belt Tensioning is made by two (2) pusher Screws which can be found in front of the Engine see Figure: C914P Belt Tensioning System for details.
