BE-WCGF4xxx USER MANUAL
SECTION V - MAINTENANCE AND STORAGE
IMPORTANT: The knife should be checked for sharpness and the nuts and bolts attaching them to the
flywheel for tightness every 8-10 hours of operation.
IMPORTANT:
Every time you perform maintenance or any kind of service or check on the knife, be sure to
check the gap between the knife and wear plate for proper setting.
NOTE: A knife gauge has been provided with your machine. It is 1/16th” thick and should be used to set the
correct gap between the knife and wear plate.
If the cutting mechanism strikes any foreign object or if your machine should start making an unusual noise
or is vibrating, stop the engine, disconnect spark plug wires from the spark plugs. Allow the engine to cool
before you;
• Inspect and examine for obvious damage.
• Check for loose parts, bolts, and nuts.
• When not in use, your chipper should be stored out of the reach of children. Be sure there are no
gasoline
1. 1. fumes in the storage area. For long periods of storage (over winter), refer to the engine owner’s man-
ual.
2. 2. After every 8 hours of operation, lubricate the chipper side and drive side bearings. To do this, wipe
all dirt, etc., from the grease fittings with a clean cloth, then apply no more than 3 shots of quality
general-purpose grease with a hand-pumped grease gun. Over lubrication can also damage bearings.
Also, check the bearing collar set screws regularly to be sure they are tight. If they are loose, reset them
with Loctite 243, obtainable at any hardware store.
3. 3. You will find information included referring to operation and maintenance of the chipper engine. Look
it over carefully. BE CERTAIN TO SERVICE THE ENGINE BEFORE YOU START IT.
4. 4. When the steel chipping knife needs replacing or sharpening, refer to the section on removal, sharp-
ening and re-installation.
5. 5. Care must be exercised when sharpening the knife to maintain the correct bevel and a straight edge.
Refer to sharpening directions. When you install a knife, the clearance between the knife and wear plate
must be checked and set. This clearance or gap should be set to 1/16” .
6. 6. To adjust this clearance, loosen the four nuts and bolts holding the wear plate in place. The wear
plate can be slid up or down (in or out) to achieve the correct
gap setting.
7. 7. Take the knife gauge and slide between the knife and wear
plate. If the gap is set correctly, the knife gauge will lightly touch
both the knife and wear plate. If the gap is too small, you will
not be able to get the gauge between the knife and wear plate.
If the gap is too large, there will be excess room between knife
gauge, knife and wear plate. Tighten the nuts and bolts when the
wear plate is in the correct
position. Be certain the flywheel rotates without hitting anything
before starting the chipper.
8. 8. If the gap between the wear plate and the knife is not set
correctly, you will have excessive vibration when chipping and
the blade will seem to be dull. This should be checked every 8-10
hours of operation. If at any time it becomes necessary to
disassemble the chipper for repairs, the chipper disk must be
re-installed in exactly the same position on the rotor shaft.
NOTE: PROPER GAP SETTING IS CRITICAL TO THE PROPER OPERATION OF YOUR MACHINE.
