Lubrication
We recommend 1 pump of lithium grease in each flange bearing before each use.
Blades
Check blades for any cracks, dullness or chips. If there are any cracks, do not use until
they have been replaced. If the blade shows dullness or chips, these blades can be
reversed.
The blades can be removed by using the included T-bar wrench or a 17mm Socket with
extension and ratchet driver. Make sure to use 2x4 or any soft material in the drum to
prevent it from moving. If the drum moves, you may strip the bolts. Also, use rags or
paper towel in the entry to prevent bolts or blades from falling into the drum.
Bar Blade
The bar blade is located at the bottom of the drum housing towards the entry chute. It
creates a gap for the chipping blades and creates a scissor action. If you have poor
chipping performance, we recommend adjusting this by loosening the bolts underneath,
