Disassembly Instructions 1. Remove final drive cover bolts and cover. (Figure 1.1) Figure 1.1 2. Remove jackshaft cover bolts and cover. (Figure 1.2) Figure 1.2 ©2019 Green Manufacturing, Inc.
3. Loosen jackshaft bearing bolts. Do not remove bolts. (Figure 1.3) Figure 1.3 4. Loosen the front bearing tensioner on final drive side. (Figure 1.4) Bearing Tensioner Figure 1.4 ©2019 Green Manufacturing, Inc.
5. Pull top sheave forward to loosen the final drive belt. (Figure 1.5) Figure 1.5 6. Measure from the back final drive cover to the front of bottom final drive sheave. Record this measurement here as you will need it for reassembly. (Figure 1.6) Sheave Measurement Notes: Figure 1.6 ©2019 Green Manufacturing, Inc.
. Remove bottom final drive sheave. Follow Taper-Lock® bushing removal instructions on page 16. (Figure 1.7) Bushing Sheave Figure 1.7 8. Loosen and remove left pillow block bearing bolts. (Figure 1.8) Left Pillow Block Right Pillow Block Figure 1.8 9. Remove right pillow block bearing bolts. Warning: The cutter wheel assembly weighs approximately 112 lbs. Use caution when loosening bolts. Cutter wheel assembly may drop unexpectedly.
11. Loosen two (2) setscrews on both the right and left side bearing collars. (Figure 1.9) Figure 1.9 12. Remove bearings from the cutter wheel shaft. In some instances, bearings may need to be pressed off or cut away from the shaft. 13. Loosen set screw on cutter wheel bushing. (Figure 1.10) Bushing Set Screw Figure 1.10 14. Remove cutter wheel bushing. Follow the split taper bushing removal instructions on page 17. 15. Set shaft, keyway, and cutter wheel bushing off to the side.
16. Remove five (5) nuts and bolts holding cutter wheel to the wheel hub. Set hub and bolts off to the side. (Figure 1.11) Figure 1.11 ©2019 Green Manufacturing, Inc.
Quadwheel® Assembly Instructions Figure 2.1 (Use Figure 2.1 for the next 8 steps) 1. Mount hub (3) using nuts (6) & bolts (5) to Quadwheel® (13). 2. Thread nuts (6) to bolts (5) and torque down firmly. 3. Slide bushing (7) into hub (3). Thread bushing bolts into hub loosely. Bushing should have some play on the cutter wheel shaft. 4. Assemble keyway (8) into cutter wheel shaft (10). 5. Slide cutter wheel shaft (10) into bushing (7) aligning keyway (8) with bushing. 6.
Assembling the Quadwheel® to Machine 1. With the bolt holes from the bearings lined up with those on the machine, set cutter wheel in place onto machine. Floor jack or equivalent lifting device is recommended for easier installation. 2. Loosely reinstall the bearing mounting bolts on the right side of wheel. 3. Loosely reinstall the bearing mounting bolts on left side of wheel. 4. Align & tighten all 4 bearing mounting bolts. 5.
6. Loosely install Quadwheel® holders and mounting blocks to the wheel. Insert LoPro® bolts lubricated with Green-Seize™ or equivalent lubricating compound. Torque the wheel holder bolts evenly until you’ve reached 180 ft. lbs. (240ft. lbs. dry) on each bolt. 7. Install Greenteeth® on all holder positions and torque to 35 ft. lbs. (Figure 3.2) Figure 3.2 8. Manually rotate the wheel to ensure each tooth position will have suitable clearance inside cutter wheel guard. (Figure 3.3) Figure 3.3 9.
10. Reinstall bottom final drive tapered bushing & sheave to the previously recorded measurement in step 6 of the disassembly instructions. Follow Taper-Lock® bushing installation instructions on page 16. (Figure 3.4) Figure 3.4 11. Use tensioners to realign jackshaft bearings. Ensure there is proper tension to the final drive belt. Tighten jackshaft bearing nuts once suitable tension to the final drive belt has been achieved. (Figure 3.5) Figure 3.5 ©2019 Green Manufacturing, Inc.
12. Once bottom final drive sheave is installed, double check the measurement from the back final drive cover to front of both top and bottom sheaves to ensure even alignment. (Figure 3.6) Figure 3.6 13. Manually rotate Quadwheel® several times and visually ensure final drive belt maintains center position to both final drive sheaves. If final drive belt does not maintain center position on final drive sheaves then adjustments will need to be made.

Loosen bushing by alternately tightening screws by following torque specs (Table 1.1). 2. Installation Instructions: a.
Split Taper Bushing Removal & Installation Instructions Warning: Use of Anti-Seize lubricant on tapered cone surfaces or on bolt threads when mounting may result in damage to sheaves. This voids all manufacturers’ warranties. 1. To Remove From Shaft: a. Remove capscrews and insert them into tapped holes in bushing flange. (Figure 5.1) b. Tighten progressively until bushing disengages. c. Remove assembly from shaft. 2. Installation Instructions: a.
Quadwheel® Procedure for Cutting a Stump Always follow all warnings and safety guidelines referenced in your equipment manufacturer’s manual. 1. Prepare The Machine: a. Drive the machine into position with the cutting wheel shaft above the top front edge of the stump. (Figure 6.1) Figure 6.1 b. Engage Quadwheel® and move the engine throttle to Fast. (Figure 6.2) Figure 6.2 ©2019 Green Manufacturing, Inc.
c. While moving the boom left and right, adjust the Left/Right travel to as slow as possible. (Figure 6.3) Figure 6.3 2. Fine Tune Travel Speed a. Lower the Quadwheel® into the stump. With travel speed set to its lowest setting, swing the cutting wheel across the stump removing as much material as your machine will comfortably cut. Slightly increase the travel speed until the Quadwheel ® is comfortably removing as much material as possible in a single pass. Repeat if necessary. (Figure 6.
