This is situated on the side of the hydraulic oil tank. When the chipper is
running, the oil temperature should not exceed 65
o
C. If it does, stop the
machine immediately. Failure to do so may result in damage. Overheating can
result from the chipper being worked extremely hard in hot conditions, as the
oil is not getting a chance to cool down. Stop the chipper and allow oil to cool
before continuing. If the temperature goes above 65
o
C and the machine is not
being worked hard or the air temperature is not particularly high this indicates
low oil, a jammed hydraulic motor or valve. Stop immediately and investigate.
When the chipper is on level ground, the oil level should sit between the red line
at the bottom of the gauge and the blue line at the top. If this level drops
significantly it indicates an oil leak. Stop immediately and investigate
.
