MAINTENANCE and LUBRICATION
DANGER: NEVER run engine inside building or enclosed area. Exhaust gases contain
carbon monoxide, an odorless and deadly poison.
Engines are shipped without oil or gasoline. Refer to MANUFACTURER'S INSTRUCTIONS for
proper procedures and recommended fluids.
IMPORTANT DO NOT drop the machine off the back of a vehicle, this may cause damage
to the body and frame. Machines should always be lifted, ramped or transported by a trailer.
LUBRICATING INSTRUCTIONS:
CHECK crankcase and gearbox oil level before each use.
CHANGE crankcase and gearbox oil as recommended by the manufacturer's instructions.
ADD grease to the pillow block bearings after every 100 hours of use.
CLEAN vertical frame posts and sleeves frequently to prevent binding. Do not use oil base lubri-
cants or grease. Silicone is recommended.
SHUT OFF ENGINE and disconnect spark plug wire to adjust, service, refuel or clean the
machine. Accidental engine starting is possible by rotating the cutter wheel.
ALL nuts, fasteners and fittings must be kept properly torqued. After every 25 hours of use the
engine nuts and bolts should be checked and tightened, if necessary. Add lock-tight to bolt threads.
AIR FILTER:
The air filter needs to be cleaned every 10 hours. More often in dusty dry conditions: Check engine
owners manual for further instructions.
Attach a remote air filter with pre-cleaner in serious dusty conditions, this will add to the engine life
considerably.
CLUTCH:
The slip clutch facings should be changed if the thickness is worn to 1/16" or less, this will maintain
the fast digging speed this type of unit can perform. Check every 20-25 hours of use.
ADJUSTMENT: Shoulder bolts must be kept tight. If the clutch wears to the point where
stopping the blades will not stall the engine within a few revolutions, tension
should be increased by adding a washer under each shoulder bolt, or by
replacing the clutch facings.

MAINTENANCE CONT...
V-BELT CARE:
V-belts may be the item most overlooked during equipment maintenance, but proper care and
maintenance of V-belts and their sheaves (pulleys) can yield great rewards. The nature of V-
beltsmakes preventive maintenancerelatively easy. V-belts andsheaves wear graduallyand
usuallygive advancewarningoffailure.
Nonetheless,it is important to recognizethewarnings. Allbeltsandsheaveswill wear as part of
theirlifescycle. Aswearoccurs, the belts will ride lower in the grooves. A worn belt is,in effect,
longerthan a newone.
V-belts grip by wedging in the pulley grooves. Belts that are too loose cause slippage, loss of
power, loss of speedand rapid wearto both thebelt and thesheave. A howl orsqueal indicates
thatthe belt istoo loose or theload is tooheavy.
ALIGNMENT AND TENSION:
Check to be sure sheaves are properly aligned because misalignment can cause excessive
wear to the belt sidewall. Unusual wear of the belt outer cover is an indication of more serious
mechanicaltrouble. V-beltsare designed to operate bymakingclean, dry surface contact with
thesidewallofthe sheaves. Inspect belts periodically toassurethattheyare not contaminated
withgreaseoroil. Don'tallowmud,rustorany otherforeignmattertobuildupinsheave grooves.
Cleansheaves carefully with a wire brush.
SIGNS OF TROUBLE:
Don't install new V-belts without carefully inspecting the sheaves. Focus special attention on
theseconditions:~worngroovesidewalls~ashinysheavegroove bottom ~ wobbling sheaves
or~ damaged sheaves. Sheave sidewallsmust be perfectly straightbecause the wedging ac-
tionof the V-beltisimpairedanditsgripping power isreducedwhenthewallsare worn ordished
out. Ashinysheave groove bottom is anindicationthat the belt, sheave orbothare badly worn
andthebeltisbottominginthegroove. Thiscondition mayfirstbeevidentonthesmallersheave.
Sheavewobblemaybecausedby~improperinstallationontheshaft~aworn/damagedbush-
ing~aworn/damagedsheavehuborby~abentshaft. Anyoftheseconditionswillcauseearly
failure. Thewobbling
sheavewhips the belt
from side to side,
subjectingthebeltto
lateralstrainandcausing
rapidwear to both the
sheaveandbelt. Vibration
isanotherindication of an
improperlyinstalledor
damagedsheave; however,
vibration can also be caused by a damaged belt.

V-BELT CARE CONT...
Checkthealignmentofthesheaves. Thedriveanddrivenshaftsshouldbeparallelbothhorizon-
tallyand vertically, and the centersofbothsheavesshouldbeina straight line. Although V-belts
cantolerateminormisalignment(About1/16inchper12inchesof shaft center distance), close-
to-perfectalignmentwillprolongbeltlife.
Set the belt take-up adjustment at its minimum position and place the new belt in the correct
positionbyhand. Neverprybeltsover the sheave with a screwdriver orotherhardobject.
AllV-belt drives must operate with correct belt tension to providetheoptimumwedgingactionof
the belt against the groove sidewalls. Allow a reasonable break in period of a few hours, and
thencheck forproperbelttension. Newbelts tendtoelongateslightlyuntil they areseatedinthe
sheave groove and initial stretch is removed from the belt. Be sure to reinstall all protective
guardsandshields.
CUTTER HUB:
REMOVING THE CUTTER HUB:
Shoulditeverbenecessaryto remove the cutter hub, remove thethree(3)cap
screwsand insert two(2) 1/4" - 20cap screws intothe threaded holes inthe
bushingflange. Tighten thecapscrewsalternatelyandevenlyso thepressagainst
theshoulder of the cutter hub, "jacking" the bushing from thehub.
INSTALLING THE CUTTER HUB:
Toinstallthecutterhub, assemble the bushing intothecutterhubsothatthethree
(3)counter-boredholesinthebushing line up with the three (3)threadedholesin
thecutterhub. Insertthethree(3)capscrewsthrough thecounter-boredholesinto
thethreadedholesandscrewtheminfingertight. Slidethecutterhubandbushing
ontheshaft over the key. Locate theassembly so the bladeswillclear the base
andtheguard. Tightenthecap screwsinsequence aroundthecircle. Repeat until
nofurthermovementcanbeobtained(approx.12ft.lbs.).
BEARINGS:
The nylon bearing (clear collar) must be inserted in the blade with a slight inward bulge. After
locating the bearing in the collar of the blade, press the bulge to conform to the contour of the
cutterhub.

BELT REPLACEMENT INSTRUCTIONS
1. Reduce Belt Tension by loosening nuts on belt adjustment plate. (A)
2. Remove two nuts & bolts from pillow block bearing under the engine(B) and
remove spacer(C).
3. Slip the new belt over and under pillow block to the belt pulleys. Note: If
one belt needs replaced, all three belts need to be replaced at the same time
to assure maximum performance.
4. When belts are in place, replace spacer (C) and re-tighten belt adjustment
nuts until there is little slack in the belts (D).
