Maintenance
Before carrying out maintenance or service work:
Stop the engine and wait for the cutting disc to stop rotating.
Allow the machine to cool
Find a dry, clean, level area.
Study and follow the published service procedures.
Do not work on a machine with loose clothing that could get caught in moving parts.
-
Check for any loose nuts and bolts.
-
Check the belt tension. The belts will stretch when they are new.
-
Grease the cutter shaft bearings. Ensure not to overfill with grease as the seals could pop
out of the housing.
For engine maintenance refer to the Engine service manual document.
Tensioning/ Replacing the Belt
Remove the belt cover and check the tension of the
belt. To tension the belt, loosen and reposition the
M12 locking nuts which set the engine height then
refit the belt cover.
Adjusting the Anvil
Remove the inlet chute and loosen the two
bolts holding the anvil. Set the distance from
the edge of the anvil to the cutting blade to
2mm. Retighten the bolts and refit the chute.
