Page 22: Chain Sharpening
Blunt chains and skewly sharpened chains entail great wear on the saw chain sword and risk of extra costs and complications. In order to avoid this, Duun VM420 is designed so that the saw chain always must be dismantled from the machine for any sharpening or replacement. - Page 23 To replace the chain, the screw A is released (first release the nuts B) as far so at to allow the chain to be removed in the back for maintenance or replacement. File dimension 5.5mm similar for older chain saws. The chain is now available for sharpening with a round file from both sides.

Page 25: Service And Maintenance
Service and maintenance Before opening any lids or covers always stop tractor or motor powering the processor in order to avoid injuries Please note: There are movable parts inside the machine which involve great power and risk of crushing. The machine should never be operated when the covers are removed. The processor has been test run and adjusted from factory and the hydraulic oil should have reached a workiong temperature of minimum 20 degrees C before any adjustments are made. - Page 26 Clean the mechanism for the log stop function. Check that indicAted lever can move completely to the lower position Inspect cutting chain and saw bar regularly. Sharpening ang tightening of the saw chain ensure effective cutting. Check that the vertical angle of the saw bar (90 degrees) so that the saw bar does not jam during cutting.

Page 27: Weekly Maintenance
Check oil level and temperature of hydraulic oil regularly. Lubricate knife adjustment at grease nipple indicated Weekly maintenance Open lid covering oil tank and clean the area to avoid that the oil tank is covered by dust and chips. This in order to keep up a best possible cooling effect. -
Page 28: Lubrication Points
40cm splitting length Lubrication points VM420 has many bearing points, of which many are only subjected to easy loads and are therefore equipped with pre-lubricated ball-bearings. The other bearings are mainly flange bearings that require moderate lubrication. The main rule here is to avoid excessive lubrication and forcing of the oil seals in the bearings. -
Page 29: Monthly Maintenance
Monthly maintenance Drain a small amount of hydraulic oil to check the oil regularly. Grey oil is an indication of water in the oil. If this occurs, all hydraulic oil must be replaced. Yearly maintenance Check the oil level after each season by releasing level screw F as illustrated in the sketch (the oil to leak at sufficient level). -
