MODEL 490
Before attempting any type of maintenance
disengage clutch, turn off engine, wait for the chipper
disc/drum to come to a complete stop, install the
disc/drum lock pin, disconnect battery, and make sure
the ignition key is in your possession.
ALWAYS install the disc/drum lock pin to prevent
inadvertent rotation. On disc chippers insert lock pin
through lock pin tube on the belly band under hood
rest. On drum chippers insert lock pin through lock
pin tube on side of drum housing.
Simply slide the lock pin into the disc/drum lock tube.
This is to insure that the chipper disc/drum cannot be
started while you are working inside the machine. If
for some reason the chipper disc/drum would start to
turn, it would simply hit the lock pin.

cause damage to the hinge. If the hinge becomes
damaged by slamming the infeed hopper, replace the
hinge immediately! If the hinge has become damaged,

chipper drum may hit the infeed hopper and cause a
serious accident! Lubricate the infeed hopper hinge
daily.

Tow the machine inside and allow the battery time to
warm up. If the machine must be started outside,
inspect the battery acid for ice formation. Explosion
will occur with a frozen battery. If the machine is going
to be operated in excessively cold conditions, a larger
cold cranking amp battery may be needed to insure
proper and prompt starting. Never use jumper cables
in a confined or unventilated area. Battery acid fumes
are explosive. Battery acid can cause severe burns.
Never expose an open flame or spark near the battery.
Keep all burning materials away from the battery.
When servicing the battery, shield eyes and face, and
