• Check that the pulleys are aligned using a straight
edge. To achieve proper pulley alignment you may need
to adjust the alignment bolt. This bolt will serve as an
adjustment point to counter the tension in the belts,
which may cause the engine pulley to be misaligned
with the cutter wheel pulley. Note: Set screws in pulley
have a torque specification of 25.3kg/m.
• Belt tension is proper when a 2.27kg to 3.18kg force
will deflect the belt 2/5" (1cm) at the midpoint.
• Retighten all loosened nuts and bolts.
• Reassemble belt guard.

Among the most critical elements of the stump grinder is
the cutting wheel. It is also the most subject to damage
and wear. In the course of grinding stumps it not only
makes contact with the wood, but also encounters
numerous abrasives and objects in the stump's environ-
ment, such as dirt, stones, large rocks and buried scrap.
The loss and wear of cutting teeth can significantly impair
the efficiency and performance of the stump grinder.
Therefore, it is important to make frequent inspections of
the condition of all the cutting teeth and to replace any
damaged or worn teeth
Thread in the bolt through the cutter wheel and into the
teeth as shown, then tighten. Bolt should be torque to
60ft/lbs.
