Blunt knives result in damage to the chipper How to re-sharpen the knives: If you don’t have a surface grinder or are unsure how to re-sharpen the knives, contact a professional saw doctor or Hansa to arrange re-sharpening. WARNING! Be careful when working around the sharp knives. Be aware that even though engine is switched off, the cutting means can still move.
WARNING! Every time the knife clamping bolts are torqued up to 35 Nm and loosened off again, the life of the bolts is reduced. The knife clamping bolts must be replaced at most after every six sharpens. Contact Hansa for replacement bolts (m8x35 bolts of grade 10.9 or higher).
