The blades can be removed by using the included T-bar wrench or a 17mm Socket with
extension and ratchet driver. Make sure to use 2x4 or any soft material in the drum to
prevent it from moving. If the drum moves, you may strip the bolts. Also, use rags or
paper towel in the entry to prevent bolts or blades from falling into the drum.
Bar Blade
The bar blade is located at the bottom of the drum housing towards the entry chute. It
creates a gap for the chipping blades and creates a scissor action. If you have poor
chipping performance, we recommend adjusting this by loosening the bolts underneath,
adjusting the bar blade to about 1-5mm to the chipping blades, make sure it is parallel
to the chipping blades and retighten.
Jams
Stop the machine, remove both entry chute and exit chute. Remove the cap on the
bearing and turn the shaft using the included wrench. You can also use a larger
adjustable wrench if more force is needed. Try rotating in both directions to loosen
jammed material.
Note: Wing nuts are provided in addition to hex nuts for entry and exit chute. Wing
nuts can be used for easy access to drum housing.
Wing nuts should be checked
frequently for looseness.
