5.6 ADJUSTING CHIPPER ANVIL
The four chipping blades should clear the chipper anvil by 1/
16 inch to 1/8 inch. The chipper anvil is adjustable and
reversible. Use all four sides of the anvil for chipping.
To adjust:
1. Lift rotor access cover and expose rotor.
2. Loosen the three 1/2 inch bolts that hold the chipper anvil
to the frame.
3. Measure the amount of clearance between chipping blade
and chipper anvil from inside of housing.
4. Adjust inward or outward to the desired measurement,
using the adjustment nuts provided.
5. Tighten bolts on chipping block to 75 ft. lbs. and resume
operation.
If damage or uneven wear occurs on chipper anvil edge,
remove the three bolts holding the anvil and use one of the
other three edges. Replace as necessary.
The diesel Kubota is tested before shipping. In order to test
the equipment the fluid levels are filled. However, before
starting the machine, check the coolant level. Add fluid if
the level is low.
To add fluid follow the procedure below:
1. Make sure the coolant isn’t hot.
2. Open the radiator cap pictured in Fig #36.
3. Check level and add if necessary. Use a 50/50 mixture of
antifreeze and water.
