This could cause chipped material to pack between the knife and cutter disk causing knife failure. Check knife for distortion using a straight edge and a light, replace the knife if distorted.
18” CHIPPER • Check the clearance between the knives and the anvil. The clearance for the knife to anvil should be between .078” and .110” (1.98 – 2.79 mm). Use a feeler gage that measures within that range. The gage should fit easily between the knife and the anvil without force and without too much free space on either side. Check clearance at the top and bottom of each knife assembly.
18” CHIPPER • • • • • • • • • • • Loosen the nuts on the adjustment bolts that are on the far side of the plate (as shown). There are two adjustment bolts. Using the nuts on the inside of the plate, turn the nuts up toward the machine to move the anvil closer to the knife. This will shorten the clearance if it was too wide. Make slight adjustments as the clearance is being checked.
18” CHIPPER SERVICE CUTTER SYSTEM SHARPEN KNIVES • • • • Have knives ground by a qualified grinder. Grind knives at 29° to 31°. Before and after grinding the knife-edge, check the width of the knife from the center of the hole to the sharp edge of the knife. Never use a knife with this measurement below 2”. Three factors for a good cutting system are: 1. Never use a knife with the distance from the cutting edge to the center of the bolt hole less than 2”. 2.

3. Emergency procedure “type 0” This procedure is applied on those machines only where the ACTIVATION of the solenoid valves allows to protect the engine against excessive stress.
4. Emergency procedure “type 1” This procedure is applied on those machines only where the DE-ACTIVATION of the solenoid valves allows to protect the engine against excessive stress.
In case RPMs exceed the RPM maximum value during the reverse interval (back), the activation sequence shall be as shown below: "BACK" = reverse time 12 V type 0 EVR 0V 12 V EVS 0V RPM MAX RPM MIN RPM 0 DISPLAY INDICATIONS Auto-Feed Auto-Feed Reverse Reverse Auto-Feed Reverse Reverse "BACK" = reverse time 12 V type 1 EVR 0V 12 V EVS 0V RPM MIN RPM 0 DISPLAY INDICATIONS Auto-Feed Auto-Feed Auto-Feed Auto-Feed Reverse Reverse Reverse Reverse
During operation, working hours can always be displayed by switching for a BRIEF INTERVAL key (+) or (-). The display shows now the ref. indicator “b” on page 7 and working hours are displayed for 3 seconds. During this interval the EVS solenoid valve is energized or de-energized by the monitor (according to what programmed in “type” parameter) only if the “auto-feed” function has been enabled (see chapter 5.3), whereas the EVR solenoid valve is never energized. 5.
7. “User” setting To enter the “user” programming phase, with the monitor ON keep key PROG pressed for at least 2 seconds and until the first parameter "HI" (i.e. RPMs minimum permitted value) is displayed. After an interval of 1 second the current programmed value is displayed (es. 4800RPM). RPM RPM h h Reverse Auto-Feed Reverse 1 sec. Auto-Feed press both "+" and "-" RPM h Reverse Auto-Feed 1 sec.
RPM RPM h h Reverse Auto-Feed 1 sec. Reverse Auto-Feed press both "+" and "-" RPM h Reverse Auto-Feed 1 sec. The parameter is changed by using key “+” or “-“; switching key “PROG” allows to go to next parameter “BACK” (i.e. activation time of the reverse solenoid valve, in ms). It is displayed with same procedure. RPM RPM h h Reverse Auto-Feed 1 sec. Reverse Auto-Feed press both "+" and "-" RPM h Reverse Auto-Feed 1 sec.
How to activate and de-activate the “auto-feed” function The device has a further programming phase, meant for activating and de-activating the “auto-feed” function. This function includes the emergency procedures previously described.
8. Range of programmable parameters Description Programmable range Default values LOW (Minimum RPM value 500 ÷ 2700 (*) RPM, steps 10RPM 2240 permitted) HIGH (Maximum RPM value 2000(*) ÷ 5000 RPM, steps 2440 permitted) 10RPM BACK (reaction time for 0 ÷ 2500ms, steps 10ms 300 reverse valve) PULSES (number of 2.0 ÷ 200.0 pulse/rev, steps 0.1 129.
Axles equipped with Dexter's E-Z Lube feature can be periodically lubricated without removing the hubs from the axle. This feature consists of axle spindles that have been specially drilled and assembled with grease fittings in their ends. When grease is pumped into the fitting, it is channeled to the inner bearing and then flows back to the outer bearing and eventually back out the grease cap hole. 1. Remove the rubber plug from the end of the grease cap. 2.
CAUTION Do not mix Lithium, calcium, sodium or barium complex greases due to possible compatibility problems. When changing from one type of grease to another, it is necessary to insure all the old grease has been removed. If your axles are equipped with oil-lubricated hubs, then your lubrication procedure is to periodically fill the hub with high quality hypoid gear oil to the level indicated on the clear plastic oil cap. The oil can be filled through the rubber plug hole in the cap.
Product Features • • • • • No need to pull the hubs to repack the bearings OR replace the seals when checking the brakes. Pre-set adjustment means installation is easy and human error is virtually eliminated in bearing adjustment. Pre-lubricated at the bearing factory providing resistance to contamination. Sealed for life, which means increased durability and reliability and no more bearing maintenance. 5 year or 100,000 mile warranty against defects in material and workmanship.
