(1) PERFORM MORE FREQUENTLY UNDER EXTREMELY DUSTY CONDITIONS.
(2) PERFORM MORE FREQUENTLY WHEN CHIPPING DRY OR DIRTY WOOD.
As the Chipper Limited Warranty states, failure by the Owner to perform normal maintenance will void the machine's
warranty. The aggressive, high-speed nature of chipping REQUIRES THE OWNER TO PERFORM THE ABOVE LISTED
NORMAL MAINTENANCE. Special consideration to maintain and re-torque the CHIPPER ANVIL, CHIPPER BLADES,
AND ALL INTERNAL AND EXTERNAL NUTS AND BOLTS is the sole responsibility of the Owner. Failure by the Owner to
do so shall be cause for denied warranty.
