INSPECTION, MAINTENANCE, AND CLEANING
1.
WARNING!
Make sure the Power Switch (47) of the Chipper/Shredder is in
its
“OFF”
position and that the machine is unplugged from its electrical outlet
before performing any inspection, maintenance, or cleaning procedures.
2.
Before each use,
inspect the general condition of the Chipper/Shredder. Check
for loose screws, misalignment or binding of moving parts, damaged electrical
wiring, jammed Blades (15), and any other condition that may affect its safe
operation. If abnormal noise or vibration occurs, have the problem corrected
before further use.
Do not use damaged equipment.
3.
Before and after each use,
open the unit and clean out the Hopper (1), Body
(13), Motor Support (26), and Chute (32).
4.
Periodically,
inspect the
two Blades (15). Using dull Blades will cause excessive
wear on the Motor, and will cause jamming.
Reverse or sharpen the Blades
when needed. When reversing Blades always wear heavy duty gloves to avoid
accidental cuts to hands and fingers. To reverse the Blades, remove the
four
Screws (14) that secure the Blades to the Disc (19). Turn the Blades over to
expose the sharp edges. Then retighten the Screws to secure the Blades to the
Disc.
(See Figure I.)
6.
When storing,
Store the Chipper/Shredder in a clean, dry, safe location out of
reach of children and other unauthorized people.
7.
CAUTION! All maintenance, service, or repairs not listed in this
manual are only to be attempted by a qualified service technician.
5.
To clean the exterior parts:
Use only a clean cloth and mild detergent to clean
the body of the Chipper/Shredder. Do not use solvents.
Do not immerse any
electrical part of the tool in liquid.
