NOTICE
Accumulated grease and oil on a machine is a fire
hazard. Remove such debris with steam clean-
ing or high pressure water. Do not use harsh
cleansers or abrasives to clean machine until 90
days after purchase or paint damage may occur.
For cleaning with a hot water cleaning device,
use a spray steam with a pressure not exceed-
ing 426 psi (2937 kPa) to prevent damage to
painted areas of the components.
Wipe all fittings, caps, and plugs before servicing.
Keep a close watch for leaks. If leaking is observed,
find the source, and correct the leak.
Check the fluid levels more frequently than the recom-
mended periods if leaking is suspected or observed,
until the problem may be corrected.
Cutting Wheel
- Check
Among the most critical elements of the stump cutter
are the cutting teeth. They are also the most subject
to damage and wear. In the course of cutting stumps
they not only make contact with wood, but also
encounter a numerous assortment of abrasives and
objects in the stump's environment, such as dirt,
stones, and occasionally a large rock or buried scrap.
The loss of and wear of teeth can significantly impair
the efficiency of a stump cutter and also result in
overexposure of other teeth and tooth pockets,
resulting in premature failure or wear. Therefore it is
important to make frequent observation of the condi-
tion of all of the cutting teeth, and replace or have
sharpened any missing and significantly worn teeth,
as soon as feasible.
Read all of the instructions on the following pages
before beginning to change cutting teeth.
