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. All four sides of the anvil can be used 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 chipper anvil edge is damaged or worn unevenly, 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, and every time the engine is started
thereafter, be sure to check the coolant level. If the level is
low add fluid.
To add fluid follow the procedure below:
1. Make sure the coolant isn’t hot.
2. Open the radiator cap pictured in Fig #28.
3. Check level and add if necessary. Use a 50/50 mixture of
antifreeze and water.

Both the Kubota diesel and the Honda gas engines used on
the 6” chipper have air filters. Refer to the Kubota and Honda
engine manuals, included with your machine, for specific
instructions on replacing and cleaning these filters.
