Hi Gearheads,
I have had a small issue with a chipper I have, it's new to me so I'm just sweeping up some issues of neglect.
Because I've been up the tree I've been unable to use it much but I've (when I say "I" it means the Dutch engineery sort that works for me) noticed the roller motor gets hotter than it should, plus, although I cannot 100% confirm this, he says crushing power diminishes a bit.
He is of the opinion that the hydraulic oil is finished and too thin, I hope he's right as it's an easy fix. So I've drained the oil and taken off the filter ready for the motor factors to open Monday.
I have an unopened 20 litre can of tellus s2v 46 the manual calls for ISO 32. Is this compatible? I've no objection to buying the right stuff but wanted to check it's not the same.
As usual, thanks in advance.
