THE FOLLOWING PAGES DETAIL ONLY BASIC MAINTENANCE
GUIDELINES SPECIFIC TO YOUR CHIPPER.
THIS IS NOT A WORKSHOP MANUAL
The following guidelines are not exhaustive and do not extend to generally accepted standards of
engineering/mechanical maintenance that should be applied to any piece of mechanical equipment
and the chassis to which it is mounted.
Authorised Timberwolf service agents are fully trained in all aspects of total service and maintenance
of Timberwolf wood chippers. You are strongly advised to take your chipper to an authorised agent for
all but the most routine maintenance and checks.
Timberwolf accepts no responsibility for the failure of the owner/user of Timberwolf chippers to
recognise generally accepted standards of engineering/mechanical maintenance and apply them
throughout this machine.
The failure to apply generally accepted standards of maintenance, or the performance of
inappropriate maintenance or modifications, may invalidate warranty and/or regulatory compliance, in
whole or in part.
Please refer to your Timberwolf service agent for service and maintenance.
