The feed roll drive belt can be adjusted by first loosening the four bolts that hold the worm gear gox to the
base, then moving the gear box away from the chute and re-torques the bolts to 40 foot pounds.
All decals and safety instructions should be kept clean and legible. It is the operator’s responsibility to replace
the decals as needed; they will b mailed at no charge.

SPECIFICATIONS
We have designed and manufactured the chipper as possible. We have used off- the shelf bearings, belts, and
pulleys. We have manufactured a few items that were not readily available. The off-the shelf items are balance
of the parts are available from the dealer, distributor, or factory.
We have used grade 8 bolts on the models for the models for the flywheel, blades, and cutter bars. All other
bolts are grade 2 or 5 as needed.
