23. Sharpening Blades:
The rotor and stationary blades need to be sharp
for the chipper to perform as expected. It is
recommended that the rotor blades be removed
from the rotor when sharpening. Always sharpen
the blades at a 45° angle to provide the best
cutting effect as it meets the stationary blade. Be
sure to tighten the blade mounting bolts to their
specified torque when re-installing the blades to
the rotor.
The stationary blade is designed with 4 sharp
corners that can be utilized. When the corner
facing the rotor blade rounds over, remove the
blade and re-install with a different corner
facing the rotor blade. Use the stationary blade
to set the clearance to the rotor blade when re-
installing. Be sure to tighten mounting bolts to
their specified torque.
