LUBRICATION & COOLANT
1) Engine:
Follow original equipment manufacturer’s requirements for both changing oils and filters, refer to engine manual
specifications.
2) Engine Coolant:
Refer to engine manufacturer’s manual specifications.
3) Clutch:
Follow original equipment manufacturer’s requirements for both greasing and adjusting. Frequently, adjust and lubricate
per PTO manufacturer’s manual.
4) Wheel Bearings:
Follow axle manufacturer’s instructions for greasing or oiling wheel bearings.
5) Hydraulic Reservoir Tank:
Completely change hydraulic oil, suction screen(s), and flush the tank annually. Change hydraulic oil filter(s) AFTER
FIRST
10 HOURS OF OPERATION. Then change hydraulic oil filter(s) every 3 months or 400 hours thereafter. Maintain hydraulic
oil level 7/8 full. See hydraulic oil requirements below. Check hydraulic oil level in tank daily.
6) High Pressure Filter(s) (if equipped):
If machine is equipped, change high pressure oil filter(s) AFTER
FIRST
10 HOURS OF OPERATION. Then change high
pressure oil filter(s) every 3 months or 400 hours thereafter.
7) Hydraulic Fluid Requirements:
See pages 54 - 55 for hydraulic fluid requirements.
8) Discharge Swivel:
Grease swivel plates for discharge as needed.
9) Hood Hinge:
Make sure the hood hinge operates correctly, and is lubricated. Must replace hinge if damaged.
10) Pivoting And Hinged Areas:
Lubricate all pivoting and hinged areas weekly. (i.e. control handle, discharge flipper, etc.)
11) Pintle Eye Ring:
Keep greased to reduce wear and extend the normal life of your pintle eye ring.
12) Chain Operated Components:
Use a dry lubricant on any chain driven components weekly. (i.e. hydraulic swivel discharge, or chain driven feedwheels)
13) Chipper & Feedwheel Bearings:
Use an EP-2 Lithium type grease
only for all bearings. Purge chipper bearings with grease you can not over grease these
bearings. Grease feedwheel bearings with one shot of grease. Both types of bearings are designed with a relief system
that will not allow over greasing. In other words, you can not hurt the bearing seals by pumping in to much grease. Wipe
off excess grease.
Excessive grease will attract dirt.
Most of the failures related to bearings are diagnosed as “Contamination”. Contamination is caused by improper
lubrication.
Especially important is proper lubrication when the chipper is setting idle. The bearings must be fully purged when shut
down. Then the bearings must be again fully purged each thirty (30) days and the machine allowed to run for approximately
10 minutes. Then fully purged again before the machine is put back into operation. Failure to do this will ruin the bearings.
Bearings corrode when the machine is setting idle.
The second largest cause of bearing failure is operating them at high speeds when the grease is cold. This causes the
bearing race to turn on the shaft. Naturally this ruins the bearing as well as the shaft. Allow the bearings to turn at slower
speeds for at least five minutes. Also check the bearing lock collar set screws or bearing locknut for tightness each 30 days.
Loose set screws or locknut allows the race to turn on the shaft. Failed bearings diagnosed as contamination or cold starts
at high speed are not covered by warranty of the bearing manufacturer.
14) Feedwheel Slide Box:
Check that feedwheel slide box is working smoothly, oil with 10W/30 type motor oil weekly. Especially new machines need
oiling to ensure correct operation during break-in.
15) “Bandit Lever Throttle Cable (if equipped):
If the machine is equipped with a “Bandit” lever throttle system, lubricate inner throttle cable and cable ends with a cable
lube or SAE 10W/0 oil every month. Replace throttle cable if it doesn’t operate smoothly.
