SERVICE INSTRUCTIONS
ALWAYS IMMOBILISE THE ENGINE BEFORE UNDERTAKING ANY MAINTENANCE
WORK ON THE CHIPPER BY REMOVING THE KEY AND DISCONNECTING POSITIVE
LEAD AT THE BATTERY.
HANDLE
blades with extreme caution to avoid injury. Gloves should always be worn when
handling the cutter blades.
AVOID
contact with hydraulic oil and fuel.
THE
drive belts should be connected while changing blades, as this will restrict sudden
movement of the rotor.
THE
major components of this machine are heavy. Lifting equipment must be used for disassembly.
CLEAN
machines are safer and easier to service.
SAFE MAINTENANCE
Only fit genuine Entec replacement blades, screws and chipper spares. Failure to do so will
result in the invalidation of the warranty and may result in damage to the chipper, personal
injury or even loss of life.
