Spares
Only fit genuine replacement blades, screws and chipper spares. Failure to do so will result in the
invalidation of the warranty and may result in damage to the chipper, personal injury or even loss of
life.
Battery removal and maintenance
•
Remove the negative lead first and then the positive lead.
Clean, charge and/or top up the battery as required.
•
•
Refitting is the reverse of removal. Apply a smear of petroleum jelly to the terminals to
prevent corrosion.
WARNING
Refer to the battery safety section
Check fittings
The device is subject to large vibrations during the normal course of operation. Consequently, there
is always a possibility that nuts and bolts will work themselves loose. It is important that periodic
checks are made to ensure the security of all fasteners. Fasteners should be tightened using a torque
wrench to the required torque (see below). Uncalibrated torque wrenches can be inaccurate by as
much as 25%. It is therefore essential that a calibrated torque wrench is used to achieve the
tightening torques listed below.
