THE MACHINE, ALLOW ALL MOVING PARTS TO COME TO A
COMPLETE STOP, AND DISCONNECT THE SPARK PLUG WIRE!
2.
Remove the V-belt cover as shown in
Pic.22.
3. Roll the belt off of the pulleys and install the new belt.
4.
Replace the V-belt cover and re-attach the spark plug wire.
Storage
Follow these guidelines when storing your chipper/shredder.
Remove the spark plug wire to prevent unauthorized starting.
Empty the bag before storing to keep the mulch from rotting in the bag.
Place the chipper/shredder in a dry, level area. If the chipper/shredder is tipped it may
leak oil and gas.
DO NOT store the chipper/shredder near an ignition source, such as a wood stove, gas
or electric heater, or an appliance or heater with a pilot light.
Store the chipper/shredder in a well ventilated area. DO NOT store the chipper/shredder
in an area that will allow toxic gas fumes into areas inhabited by humans or animals.
