9. Repairs and maintenance
Caution!
Strictly perform installation, set-up, maintenance, cleaning and
transportation with the motor switched off (or power disconnected) and
the tool firmly secured against accidental operation .
9.1 Ordinary general maintenance
Following maintenance operations must be performed as they become
occurrent:
- Cleaning of the machine to remove residual wood debris, chips or
dirt.
- Check for eventual wear of the saw chain and if required replace with
a new chain or regrind.
- Check the oil level in the gearbox.
- Check the hydraulic oil level to assure that the system is tight. In the
event of a low level make sure that there are no leaks out of the lines
(hoses and connections).
- Replace the oil filter after approx. each 100 operation hours.
- Oil and lubricate all moving parts (and controls).
- Make sure that the conveyor belt slides properly and trouble-less.
- Check the V-belt and make sure it is not worn.
- Try the emergency push-button (only electric versions) to check for
trouble free function and efficiency.
- Check the guides of the push-block in the splitter section and adjust,
if necessary.
9.2 Chainsaw maintenance
Make sure that the saw chain is sharp, oiled and free of damages
and defects in order to assure a safe and clean cut and to improve
productivity.
Regularly clean the chain and check that there are no cracks or other
damages.
Chain pitch t = 3/8“.
To check pitch measure the distance between three rivets and divide
by two.
t = a/2 (Pitch = distance between three rivets divided by two).
Do not regrind the chain by yourself. Let a skilled service centre
do it for you! Take note that all cutter teeth of your chain must be
sharpened by the same fi ling angle (30°) and must show the same
height.
Regularly inspect and clean the chain using a brush. Plunge the chain
in an oil bath in order to perform fine cleaning. If the machine will not be
used for a long period of time, dismount the chain and store it in oil bath.
9.3 Hydraulic oil specifi cations
Regularly check the oil level in the hydraulic oil tank making
sure to avoid foreign particles, dirt and debris from entering and
contaminating the tank.
