MAINTENANCE
Adjusting the Belt:
There is a “V” belt under the belt cover, which tra n sits energy from the engine to the blade
tray. After some use the belt may stretch and become loose so it will be necessary to adjust the
tension.
• Turn off the engine and remove the belt cover.
• Loosen the four location nuts on the engine.
• Move the engine forward until the “V” belt is tight.
• Put the main pulley and affiliated pulley in the same plane (using a ruler to check).
• Tighten the four location nuts on the engine.
• Replace the belt cover.
Replacing the Belt:
The “V” belt may need replacing if it becomes too long or is damaged.
• Turn off the engine and remove the belt cover.
• Carefully remove the old belt.
• Place the new belt in the main pulley first (“V” belt on engine) and then on to the affiliated
pulley beside the blade tray.
• The new belt will be tighter than the old , so this can be a little tricky.
• Replace the belt cover.
Adjusting the Hammer:
There are 16 hammers in the machine box - when the blades run fast these hammers crush
the material into small pieces. In time the cutting edge of the hammers may become blunt.
Initially you only need to turn the hammers over 180 degrees, but when both sides are blunt
they will need replacing. This mu s t be done by an authorised service dealer.
