Assembly  

IMPORTANT

The engine is shipped dry of oil. It must be filled with oil before use, see page 4 for the correct 
amount. It must be filled with the chipper on level ground, do not tilt it. Use 5W-30 in winter 
and 10W-30 in summer for best results.

12. Insert the short flange (without bolt holes) of the Lower Blanking Plate (34) between forwardmost lower 
drum mounting bolt and the underside of the drum housing (9). Place two M6x16 (42) bolts through the holes 
on the larger flange and through the holes in the drum housing flange. Secure with two M6 washers (28) and 
two M6 nuts (29.)
