In all Carlton® model Stump Grinders, you will find link belt bearings that are made to be
purged with grease. It is necessary to purge these bearings everyday until clean grease is seen.
CAUTION should be taken not to allow grease to build up inside the belt guards.
•
Remove the V-belt guard cover. Follow
instructions in the Servicing Belts section for
removing the engine belt.
•
Remove the jackshaft pulley. Remove the bolts
from the bushing and use them to screw into the
threaded holes in the bushing. Turn one bolt
only a slight amount and then turn the next bolt
the same amount. Work back and forth turning
the bolts in equal amounts until the bushing is
pushed out of the jackshaft pulley.
