• Grease machine. Every 8 hours, one pump of grease to each of the four
nipples at the central grease point manifold located near the control panel.
See Figure 1.
• Check all fasteners are present and assembled to the correct torque.
• Check proximity sensors on engine cover, removable hopper and trip bar are
not damaged and working correctly. The trip bar sensor is the most
vulnerable and if severely damaged could result in the trip bar not working.
• Check drive belt tension and adjust as necessary. See Figure 16, Figure 17 &
Figure 21.
• Check pulleys and taper lock on flywheel shaft. See Figure 17.
• Check flywheel blades for damage and sharpness. Machine performance is
adversely affected if blades are blunt or damaged. Replace and sharpen
blades as required. Make sure that the blade seat is clean and free of
damage before reassembly. Shims are available to adjust for blade size
reduction after sharpening. Please refer to blade sharpening for size limits,
adjustment shims and setting. Ensure blade fasteners are correctly installed
and tightened to the appropriate torque. Check
after 1 hours’ work then
weekly.
• Anvil and side anvil are replaceable and double sided. Make sure that the
anvil seat is clean and free of damage before reassembly.
• Exercise extreme care to avoid injury when removing and replacing blades
and anvils. The flywheel can turn creating crush and cutting points in and
around the chipping chamber.
• Check all hydraulic hoses and fittings after 5 hours’ work. Beware of hydraulic
oil leaks, they can cause serious injury while the engine is running and the
system is under pressure. A leak can easily inject high pressure oil deep into
flesh and blood stream requiring immediate medical attention.
DO NOT
CHECK FOR LEAKS WHILE THE ENGINE IS RUNNING.
Hoses to the feed
roller hydraulic motors are the most likely to become damaged as they are
constantly moving during use. If hoses are replaced, all seals must be
replaced at the same time.
• Check top and bottom feed motor bracket bolts weekly.
• For any track related servicing and maintenance, please consult your nearest
Forst dealer and service centre.
