9” CHIPPER MACHINE MAINTENANCE

TIRES AND AXLES
• Check tires air pressure daily. Inflate
tires as necessary. Keep tire air pressure
adjusted based on the temperature and
the load.
• When towing, make sure the chipper is
sitting as close to level as possible to
ensure proper tire wear and axle
alignment.
• Check lug nuts for proper tightness.
Tighten when necessary. Replace lug
nuts if the threads are worn, chipped, or
missing.
• Check tire rims for damage that could
cause improper air pressure. If rims are
damaged beyond repair, replace.
• See Dexter information for E-Z Lube®
or Nev-R-Lube® Axles supplied in this
manual. Remember to inspect axles
regularly.
• Check and replace dust caps as needed.
FRAME
• Periodically check the chipper frame and
other permanent parts for cracks, bends,
failed welds, or other damage that needs
repair. Repair as necessary or contact an
authorized dealer.
