1. Check anvil clearance, tightness, and wear:
Measure the anvil clearance. The clearance should
be .120” (3.0 mm) from highest knife. Check the
anvil hardware, make sure the bolts are at the proper
torque. The anvil is a normal wear item, if it is worn
you can rotate it to a new working edge. Refer to
page 63 for the exact checking of anvil clearance
procedure.
2. Check alternator and fan belts on engine:
Inspect belt condition and replace as needed.
As applicable adjust and maintain per the engine
manufacturer’s manual.
3. Check wheel lug nuts (if equipped):
Keep lug nuts tight, retorque, replace if needed.
4. Check uid level in pump bearing block(s):
Keep the uid level in the pump bearing block(s) full,
use an 80W/90 type gear lube. Requires a minimum
of 2.2 oz (65 ml) and a maximum of 4.4 oz (130 ml).
5. Lubricate all steel friction areas:
Lubricate all steel friction areas including, but not
limited to pivoting, hinged, sliding, rotating areas
on the machine (i.e. conveyor chain, cabinet doors,
discharge, discharge ipper, engine adjusters, etc.)
6. Lube chain driven components:
Use a dry lube on any chain driven components:
chain driven feedwheels, etc.
7. Check Stick Breakers:
Check the condition of the stick breakers. Sharpen
or replace as necessary.
WEEKLY MAINTENANCE
1. Grease drum head bearings:
Grease with 16 pumps, every 120 hours or once
a month with a specic synthetic type grease. Use
Mobil 1 Universal Synthetic grease, Mobil SHC 220
Synthetic grease, Mobil AW2 Synthetic grease, or
Amsoil Multi-Purpose Grease NLGI#2.
2. Check towing hitch (if equipped):
Check for excessive damage or wear. Replace if
needed. Keep pintle ring or 5th wheel greased to
reduce wear.
3. Check discharge and infeed hopper wear:
Check for wear on discharge, infeed hopper, and
discharge direction adjustor; build up, repair or
replace as needed.
4. Inspect feedwheel motor connections,
sprockets, and bushings:
Check and maintain correct torque, on feedwheel
motor connections, sprockets, and bushings.
5. Check feedwheel teeth for sharpness:
Replace if needed.
6. Check infeed conveyor chain:
Check the tracking and tightness of the infeed
conveyor chain. Make sure the chain is running true.
Adjust as needed.
7. Check chipper bearings and chipper sheave:
Check, retighten all bearing bolts, bearing lock
collars, and also belt sheave bushings to correct
torques.
8. Check hydraulic pumps, motors, and gear
boxes:
Check tightness and connections of all hydraulic
pumps, hydraulic motors, and gear boxes. Tighten
if needed.
9. Check hydraulic function pressures:
Check, reset and maintain all hydraulic function
pressure settings to a maximum of the specied
PSI (bar). This will give you the best performance
from the hydraulic system.
10. Check wheel bearings (if equipped):
Check and grease or oil wheel bearings per axle
manufacturer’s instructions.
