Long Term Storage
Clean, inspect, service, and make necessary repairs to
the Wood Chipper when parking it for long periods and at
the end of a working season. This will help ensure that
the Wood Chipper will be ready for field use the next time
you hook-up to it.
1. Clean off any dirt and grease that may have
accumulated on the Wood Chipper and moving
parts.
2. Inspect all rotating components for entangled
material and remove.
3. Wash surfaces thoroughly with a garden hose or
power washer.
4. After washing unit, run machine for several minutes
to dry out the inside.
5. Check knives for wear. Rotate knives, resharpen
worn knives, or replace with new knives.
6. Check knife ledger. Rotate knife ledger or replace
knife ledger when required.
7. Inspect Wood Chipper for loose, damaged, or worn
parts. Adjust and tighten loose parts or replace as
needed.
8. Repaint parts where paint is worn or scratched to
prevent rust. Ask your Land Pride dealer for aerosol
touch-up paint. They are also available in touch-up
bottles with brush, quarts, and gallon sizes by adding
TU, QT, or GL to the end of the aerosol part number.
9. Replace all damaged or missing guards and decals.
10. Lubricate as noted in “Lubrication Points” on
page 28.
11. A light coat of oil or grease may be applied to the
knives and to any exposed unpainted parts to
minimize oxidation.
12. Store Wood Chipper on a level surface in a clean, dry
place. Inside storage will reduce maintenance and
make for a longer Wood Chipper life. Tarp Wood
Chipper if stored outside.
