Towing the Machine Check with your local county or state safety towing regulations, in addition to meeting the Department of Transportation (DOT) Safety Towing Regulations, before towing the machine. • In order to reduce the possibility of an accident while transporting the machine on public roads, make sure that the towing vehicle is mechanically sound and in good operating condition. • Shut down the engine before transporting the machine. • Inspect the hitch and coupling for wear.
• Never leave a running machine unattended. Always stop – Ensure that the tires are properly inflated as recommended. the engine and verify the chipper flywheel has stopped rotating. – Ensure that the lug nuts are tight and torqued properly. • Do not touch parts which may be hot from operation. Allow them to cool before attempting to maintain, adjust, or service the machine. – Ensure that the machine is properly secured. • Lightning can cause severe injury or death.

• Ensure that the work areas and blades are free from 5. Install the locking pin to secure the lever (Figure 5). metallic objects such as wire, nails, etc. that could be thrown out and injure persons in the vicinity and damage the equipment. 6. Cross or “X” the safety chains and attach them to the holes on the hitch. 7. Plug the tail light wire harness connector to the tow vehicle connector.
DANGER In certain conditions, gasoline is extremely flammable and highly explosive. A fire or explosion from gasoline can burn you and others and can damage property. • Fill the fuel tank outdoors, in an open area, when the engine is cold. Wipe up any gasoline that spills. • Never fill the fuel tank inside an enclosed trailer. • Do not fill the fuel tank completely full. Add gasoline to the fuel tank until the level is 6 to 13 mm (1/4 to 1/2 inch) below the bottom of the filler neck.
4. Remove the dipstick and wipe the end clean. 5. Slide the dipstick fully into the dipstick tube without threading it into the filler neck. 6. Pull the dipstick out and look at the end. The oil should be to the top of the upper limit range (Figure 9). G016608 Figure 10 1. Locking pin button 2. Clamp knob Figure 9 1. Oil dipstick 3. Valve cover 2. Oil fill cap 4. Metal end 2.

Note: A warm or hot engine may not require choking. to cool the engine before stopping. In an emergency, the engine may be stopped immediately. 2. Turn the ignition switch to the Off position (Figure 13). Using the Brush Chipper Service Interval: Before each use or daily—Clean the inside of the cutting chamber cover. DANGER G016610 The machine will cut and amputate hands and feet. Figure 12 • Stay in the operator's position while the machine is running. 2. Throttle 1. Choke 2.
• To move a pile of processed material, use a spade, rake, or long handle tool. Never use your hands or feet! • Limit the length of large branches to 3 feet long or less; longer lengths could cause the chipper to slow and jam. • Wash out the cutting chamber after each use by spraying water from a garden hose into the hopper while the engine is running at full throttle. Do this for a few minutes to prevent accumulation of matter that can degrade the chipper performance.
Maintenance Important: Before performing any maintenance procedures, first stop the engine, wait 5 minutes to allow all moving parts to come to a complete stop and cool, and disconnect the spark plug wires. Recommended Maintenance Schedule(s) Maintenance Service Interval Maintenance Procedure After the first 50 hours • Change the engine oil. Before each use or daily • • • • • • Check the engine oil level. Clean the inside of the cutting chamber cover. Grease the machine. Check the drive belt tension.
Engine Maintenance Lubricate the Wheel Bearings Service Interval: Every 500 hours Servicing the Air Cleaner Lubricate the wheel bearings with several pumps of No. 2 general purpose lithium base grease (Figure 17). Removing the Air Filter 1. Unscrew the knob and remove the air cleaner cover (Figure 18). G016621 Figure 17 1. Grease fitting Figure 18 1. Knob 6. Foam pre-filter 2. Air-cleaner cover 7. Paper filter 3. Cover nut 4. Spacer 8. Rubber seal 9. Air–cleaner base 5. Cover 2.
Note: This warms the oil so it drains better. 3. Wash the foam pre-filter in liquid soap and warm water. When clean, rinse it thoroughly. 4. Dry the pre-filter by squeezing it in a clean cloth and allow it to air dry. 5. Put 1 or 2 ounces of engine oil on the pre-filter (Figure 19). 2. Park the machine so that the drain side is slightly lower than the opposite side to ensure that the oil drains completely. 3. Place one end of a hose on the drain valve and the other end in a pan (Figure 20). Figure 19 1.
Checking the Spark Plug contacts the filter adapter, then tighten the filter an additional 3/4 turn. 1. Look at the center of the spark plug (Figure 23). If you see light brown or gray on the insulator, the engine is operating properly. A black coating on the insulator usually means that the air cleaner is dirty. 11. Remove the oil fill cap and slowly pour approximately 80% of the specified amount of oil in through the valve cover (Figure 9). 12.
Belt Maintenance Fuel System Maintenance Adjusting the Drive Belt Tension Changing the Fuel Filter Service Interval: Before each use or daily—Check the drive belt tension. Service Interval: Every 200 hours 1. Clamp the fuel line between the carburetor and the fuel filter to block the fuel flow. Note: Inspect the drive belt tension by inserting a metal scale through the slot on top of the belt cover (Figure 25) and pressing down on the scale with a force gage. The force should measure 6.5-7.
Cutter Maintenance 5. Adjust the drive belt tension by loosening the jam nut and tightening the tension bolt against the engine mounting plate, pushing the engine rearward. 6. Lay a straightedge across clutch and flywheel pulleys, tighten belt tension bolt so there is 1 cm (0.40 inch) of flex in the belt when pushing down with 6.8 kg (15 lbs) force, at mid-span (when re-tensioning a belt in use) or with 8 kg (18 lbs) force when installing a new belt (Figure 27).
Charging the Battery Important: Always keep the battery fully charged (1.265 specific gravity). This is especially important to prevent battery damage when the temperature is below 32F (05C). Charging the battery produces gases that can explode. Never smoke near the battery and keep sparks and flames away from battery. 1. Remove the battery cover. 2. Clean the top of the battery with a paper towel. 3. Charge the battery for 10 to 15 minutes at 25 to 30 amps or 30 minutes at 4 to 6 amps.
Inspecting the Tires Inspecting the Tires Service Interval: Every 100 hours Note: Failure to maintain correct pressure may result in tire failure and loss of control resulting in serious injury or property damage. Figure 33 Example of tire wear caused by over-inflation. • Operating accidents can damage a tire or rim, so inspect tire condition after an accident. 1. Over inflated tire • Check the tire pressure frequently to ensure proper inflation.
Storage For storage over 30 days, prepare the machine as follows: 1. Remove dirt and grime from the external parts of the entire machine, especially the engine. Clean dirt and sawdust chips from the outside of the engine cylinder head fins and blower housing. Important: You can wash the machine with mild detergent and water. 2. Add a petroleum based stabilizer/conditioner to fuel in the tank. Follow mixing instructions from stabilizer manufacturer. (1 oz. per US gallon).
Troubleshooting Problem The engine will not start. The engine runs rough. Chipping action seems slow or the flywheel is stalling. The flywheel does not rotate. Drive belt is worn, burned, or jumps off of pulley. The machine has excessive vibration. Possible Cause Corrective Action 1. The choke is open. 1. Close the choke when starting a cold engine. 2. The fuel tank is empty. 3. The spark plug wire is loose or disconnected. 2. Fill the tank with fresh fuel. 3.
