WARNING: 

Always stop the PTO, turn off the engine and remove the key before 

performing any inspection, maintenance, adjustments or cleaning. 

Lubricate:

 

   PTO shaft — 2 zerks on universals once a day with multipurpose grease. 

 Slip Joint — Lubricate with multi-purpose grease. 

 Feed roll pivot — 2 zerks on underside of chute end. Multipurpose grease every 4 to 8 

hours of operation. If dust or fine particles make pivot bind, unhook feed roll springs, 
use  cleaning  solvent  on  pivot  while  moving  up  and  down,  wipe  off,  lubricate  slides, 
and replace springs. 

 Feed roll drive-shaft — Zerk on feed roll drive-shaft lubricates both the slide and both 

universal joints. Add multipurpose grease until grease shows at both universals every 
4  to  8  hours  of  operation,  particularly  before  each  use.  Occasionally  remove  and 
thoroughly clean this assembly. 

 Feed roll clutch — While feed roll shaft is off, lubricate the feed roll clutch inside and 

outside with multipurpose grease. 

 Gear box — Check label on the gear box for gear box lubrication. 

 Check all bolts, set-screws and fasteners after running four hours, and once per day 

thereafter. 

 Check  for  loose  belts  and  broken  pulleys,  loose  springs,  dry  slides  and  proper 

lubrication of both feed roll drive-line and feed roll clutch. 

 The  main  drive  belts  on  the  chipper  need  co  be  tight.  To  tighten  these  belts,  first 

loosen the four bottom nuts that hold the jack-shaft bearing. Loosen them about three 
turns, then move the nuts on the top of the bearings down an equal amount. Keep the 
jack-shaft parallel with the main shaft. Torque the bottom nuts to 80 ft.-lbs. 

 The belts of the main drive on the PTO chipper should be checked every 8 hours of 

operation. 

 Look  for  cracks,  looseness  or  other  signs  of  deterioration.  For  best  performance, 

replace with a matched set of eight belts. 

 The feed roll drive belt can be adjusted by first loosening the four bolts that hold the 

worm  gear  box  to  the  base,  then  moving  the  gear  box  away  from  the  chute  and 
re-torques the bolts to 40 ft.-lbs. 

 All decals and safety instructions should be kept clean and legible. It is the operator’s 

responsibility to replace the decals as needed (they will be mailed at no charge).
