BLADE MAINTENANCE
The chipper has two blades that are attached to a rotating support. When one
side of a blade becomes dull, it can be turned to use the other side. Replace or
properly sharpen dull blades.
Replace a blade
1. Turn OFF the chipper and remove
the plug from the outlet.
2. Turn the lock knob counterclockwise
until the housing cover can be
opened.
3. Lift up the housing cover to expose
the two blades (1).
4. Place a 6 mm wrench (2) on one
of the four 6 mm bolts below the
blade support (3) to secure it and
stop it from rotating.
5. Use the other 6 mm wrench to
loosen and remove the two
screws (5) that hold each blade to the support.
6. Lift out the old blade. Either reinsert the blade with the sharp edge in
position as the cutting surface or insert a replacement blade.
7. Replace and tighten the two screws to secure the new blade to the support.
GENERAL MAINTENANCE
1. Keep the chipper clean and in good repair for maximum performance and
machine longevity.
2. Before each use, inspect the switch and cord for damage.
3. Check for damaged, missing, or worn parts. Check for loose screws, moving
parts that are jammed or any other conditions that may affect the operation.
4. If abnormal vibration or noise occurs, turn OFF the tool immediately and
correct the problem before further use.
5. Do not use the chipper until it is properly repaired or replaced.
